More than fifty artists who draw their inspiration from the Tasmanian landscape, history and people are helping to ensure the Tasmanian Greens are in the strongest possible position for the federal election 2013.
The creative works have been donated by contributors across the island for GreenArt 2013, an exhibition and auction at the Long Gallery from 12 to 16 June. Funds raised at the auction will go towards the Tasmanian Greens’ federal election campaign.
“The wealth of work available is a tribute to the generosity of all the artists taking part, some of whom depend entirely on their art for a living,” said event organiser Karen Brown.
“The strong response to GreenArt 2013 is an expression of the creative community’s faith in the Greens as a voice for a more caring society.”
Featured Tasmanian artists include, Max Angus, Raymond Arnold, David Keeling, Helen Wright, Rob Blakers, Neil Haddon and Michael McWilliams.
The auction kicks off at 2pm on Sunday 16 June, with viewing at the Long Gallery from 10am Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
