Recently Drift Bikes donated a $500 voucher to the Seascape and Beyond Art Exhibition Raffle
The fourth Seascape and Beyond art exhibition fundraiser was held on the 22nd - 24th March at Merewether Surf Life Saving Club and has again raised $10,000 for research into mental health.
80 artists exhibited 141 works of art in all mediums. 20 selling artists, a Lifestyle raffle, auction of artworks, gold coin donations and bar sales contributed to the financial success of another great weekend.
Organiser Juliet Clark has this year donated $5,000 to BeyondBlue and $5,000 to the University of Newcastle Foundation research Honours scholarship into suicide prevention.
The art exhibition was a resounding success with Dr Keith Harris head of Suicidology at the University of Newcastle assuring a packed opening night crowd that this exhibition and it's ramifications offers Hope, where to many life can often feel 'hopeless'.
