Gay Hawkes | Art Auction

Posted: 22 Feb 2013

Artist Gay Hawkes, who has exhibited at fortyfivedownstairs on several occasions over the years, has suffered the loss not only of her home, and studio but her entire archive in the disastrous fires at Dunalley in Tasmania.   Her artist friends and admirers have joined us to organise a fund raising event to help rebuild her studio, buy tools and start work again.

An evening of art and music which will be compered by Gay’s great admirer Moira Finucane, star of the wonderful Burlesque Hour. The sounds of Vardos and Rachel Guy will accompany the event. Over 30 artists have promised works including Jacqui Stockdale, Sam Leach, Simon Cuthburt, Sally Curry, Naomi Howard and Eve Howard.

Event runs Tuesday 26 February 2013
