Help Shave an Artist

The NZ Art Guild are joining together wtih the Leukaemia and Blood Foundation of NZ to Shave An Artist. Yes - that's right - artists from all over NZ are shaving their heads to raise money and support the 6 New Zealand children and adults are diagnosed with blood cancers like leukaemia and lymphoma every day. The Leukaemia & Blood Foundation provides essential support not only for those patients, but for their families - support that can last months, and even years.

Top NZ Artists have donated 13 artworks which will auctioned off at a one of a kind, not to missed charity event.  Watch while artists and friends have their heads shaved alongside their artworks being auctioned.  To coincide with this event 35 artists from around NZ will be having a month long exhibition of artworks depicting "life" in all its facets.

100% of the proceeds from the art auction and head shaves will be donated to LBF and 20% of all artwork sales from the exhibition will be donated also.
