What: FUNdraiser art auction, Friends of the Earth Forest Collective
When: Online from mid August and in person Sunday 8th September 2024. 12 noon to 5pm.
Where: In person event at Bright Brewery, 121 Great Alpine Road, Bright.
Why: Australia’s iconic snow gum woodlands and alpine ash communities are under threat from the increased frequency of bush fires.
Lack of live mature trees leads to lack of seed. No seed means no new seedlings to replace the burnt high country forests.
Up to 90% of our snow gum forests are under threat right now.
Come and join us on the 8th of September at the Bright Brewery.
There will be live music, door prizes, info and merch stalls and gorgeous art works to view and purchase in a fabulous pub atmosphere.
All money raised will go towards saving our high country forests.
Make a weekend of it.
Can’t make it on the day? View the art online via Galabid. The link to the auction site will go live mid August.
Calling all artists to Help save our Alps.
Please donate some artwork to raise much needed funds.
Paintings, ceramics, photography or other media are all welcome.
