2009 Charity Wine Box Auction

August 19, 2009

Now in its 4th year, the ‘Wine Box Auction’ is a positive and unique event that raises funds to directly benefit RealPeople @ Mosiac, a community based vocational service for people with a disability.

The Winebox Auction will be held on the 26th August, 6pm at the Hastings City Art Gallery

Thirty five artists have contributed their time and artistic skills for the 2009 event, supporting and acknowledging of the importance of RealPeople @ Mosaic. They include; Dick Frizzell, Fane Flaws, Ben Pearce, Eddie Budd, Chris Bryant, Paratene Matchitt, Riks Terstappen and Alan Toa.

With the generous support of sponsor, Riverside Wines, each Winebox artwork auctioned includes 6 bottles of wine. The bottles are uniquely hand-labelled with an image of the artwork they accompany, further adding to the value of the artwork.  The works will then be auctioned at the Winebox Auction on the 26th August, with all proceeds directly benefiting RealPeople @ Mosaic.

Chris Tremain will again be an Auctioneer, as asks you to support this worthy cause.

“Come along to this great charity fundraiser and have a fantastic night out!”
