Artworks on Display for Wanaka Auction
Artists from Wanaka and beyond, 29 in all, mostly members of Wanaka Arts Society, have donated 49 art-works to be sold at the Charity Auction at Wanaka on Saturday, 16th February, to support the Dunstan Hospital CT Scanner Fit-Out Appeal.  All donated art-works will be displayed for pre-viewing before the auction from noon to 4 pm at 15-19 Cliff Wilson St, Wanaka, on Thursday 14th and Friday 15th February 2013.

All funds raised from the art-works will go towards the Appeal. The importance of this cause to our community inspired many artists to create original art-works especially for the auction. Some of the artists have won awards in New Zealand and some internationally too. Artists contributing their works to the auction include painters Maurice Middleditch, Anne Davies, Jan Rasmussen, Susie Ruddenklau, June Harris, Jo Nimmo, Sue Deason-Robertson and Freda Ryder, photographers Gilbert Van Reenen, Roger Urlwin and Kay Todd, print-maker Donald Paterson, quilt-maker Jeanette Gillies and wood-carver/sculptor Murray Sheppard.
