ARTWORK TO SUPPORT NEPALESE FRIEND

Fremantle artist Steve Makse is doing his own fundraising to help a friend in Nepal, so support him please. Here the message he sent me:

“Thinking of an old friend, Harka, a Nepali guide I met while trekking in Nepal. He and his family are alive after the earthquakes but their village is reduced to rubble.

The painting depicts a river valley, somewhere along the Annapurna Circuit, a well worn route through the Himalayas. If anyone out there would like to buy this painting the money will be sent to Harka and his family. The painting is $450 ; oil on canvas; 455mm x 510mm – free pickup or viewing from my studio in MANY6160 at Kings Square, Fremantle.

FREO COMMUNITY RAISES $ 30,000 FOR NEPAL!

Well done to all the hardworking and passionately committed people in the Fremantle community who organised the RESTORING NEPAL CONCERT and other events. I was just told that close to $ 30,000 was raised for the earthquake victims in Nepal.

So a very, very big THANK YOU! to the musicians from Empire Blues, Mutima Band and the Nervous investors, and to those who donated items for the raffle, and the Fremantle Sailing Club for supplying the venue.

It gives one a real warm and fuzzy feeling to see that people do care, even about countries and people they have never met. Well done all and thank you so much!
