New Zealand Art Show 2010
Friday, 30th July 2010
Time: 6:30 – 9:30pm
Price: $60
Where: TSB Bank Arena, Queens Wharf, Wellington
Wellington Children's Hospital has been named the Official Charity of the New Zealand Art Show (previously known as the New Zealand Affordable Art Show) and a special evening is being held at the New Zealand Art Show to raise funds for Wellington Children's Hospital.
In 2009, the inaugural fundraising event was held and the NZ Art Show was delighted to be able to donate $5,000 to the Children's Hospital from ticket sales.
The evening was a great success, with fine wine, delicious food and live entertainment to make the evening an enjoyable event for all. The New Zealand Art Show is confident that the 2010 fund-raiser will be an equally successful evening with even more being raised and donated to a worthwhile cause.
Tickets for the 2010 event are on sale now and can be purchased:
- Online at www.whhf.org.nz/giftshop
