‘Coast To Coast’, hosted by Saint Cloche, brings together more than 100 works from 70 artists to help raise funds for two important causes; aiding the crisis in Ukraine, and the flood affected communities of Queensland and New South Wales.

Artists and galleries from around the country – including Ken Done, Libby Haines, Abbey Rich, EVI O and Pey Chi – have donated their incredible works for the show, which will be on display at Saint Cloche’s Sydney gallery. The range of paintings, sculptures and artworks will be available to purchase online via auction platform Gala Bid, with prices starting at $300.

The silent auction opened yesterday and will run until midnight May 15 – but the portal already says it’s raised an impressive $35,372!

All the money will be donated equally to UNICEF’s Emergency Ukraine Appeal and GIVIT – to help people displaced and profoundly impacted by the devastating floods get back on their feet.

There’s also an opening reception Wednesday May 11 from 6pm, with special guests Wentworth Independent Candidate, Allegra Spender, and UNICEF Young Ambassador, Isabelle Shaw.

To buy some amazing art for the cause, visit the online auction here.
