The first Art for Science in 2005 was a great success and engaged the community about the life-saving child health research conducted by the Murdoch Childrens Research Institute, by using art to showcase science.

Over 50 artworks, inspired by the brilliance of science were donated by Australia's leading contemporary artists and designers. These works were auctioned raising over $200,000 for the Murdoch Childrens Research Institute. Download the catalogue of artworks
