Call for art with heart

Vision Australia clients who love to paint, draw or sculpt are invited to contribute artworks for our 2011 fundraising calendars and diaries.

At Vision Australia we passionately believe that people who are blind or have low vision can do anything - and that includes creating great works of art!

Our large-print calendars and diaries, which feature artworks by Vision Australia clients, are always popular.

With their full-page colour photos of paintings, drawings, sculptures and tactile artworks, as well as profiles on each of the artists, these reasonably priced calendars help to raise awareness about our community's capabilities.

Importantly, our vibrant calendars and diaries also raise much-needed funds that enable Vision Australia to continue to deliver free support services across the nation.

Vision Australia clients of all ages and artistic abilities are invited to submit work. We accept photos of drawings, paintings, craftwork, mosaics and sculptures.

So if you, or someone you know, has an artistic streak, why not share it with the community and help to raise funds for Vision Australia?
