HIV is a cause that doesn’t often hold its hand out in a public way, yet it is a major issue facing all of us. The number of people in New Zealand living with HIV is higher than ever before and this number is increasing every year.
To raise funds for essential HIV prevention initiatives for the people most at risk of HIV, the New Zealand AIDS Foundation (NZAF) in conjunction with ART+OBJECT will be hosting a charity art auction, For the Love of Art, to take place on Thursday 8 July at 3 Vernon Street (beside the Drake Pub), Freeman's Bay.
Many of New Zealand’s most respected and accomplished artists such as Michael Parekowhai and Shane Cotton are participating. Peter Stichbury has donated a piece of work from his personal collection, Karen Walker will contribute a piece of custom-made jewellery and there are other luxury packages including one carat diamond earrings from Graham Thompson Antique Jewellery and an Eagles Nest luxury retreat in the Bay of Islands.
The scale of the auction will be small with around twenty handpicked lots. All proceeds raised at For the Love of Art will directly benefit NZAF HIV prevention initiatives.
