A R T Q U A K E
Art Auction Fundraiser
Eastside Arts, Paddington
7th October 2006
Indonesian Solidarity and Union Aid Abroad - APHEDA are organising a benefit exhibition/auction to assist
people who have been affected by the recent disasters in Indonesia.
On 27 May, 2006 a high magnitude earthquake struck the city of Yogyakarta, with over 6 000 people killed,
around 46 000 injured, and over 600 000 left homeless. On 17 July, 2006 a small Tsunami struck Pangandaran,
at least 660 people were killed and approximately 51 500 lost their homes.
These disasters have occurred in such close proximity together that it is vital that the Australian
community provides assistance to all those affected.
Artquake is an opportunity for Australian artists to directly support the people of Indonesia.
Artquake is about people connecting with people, across national boundaries in order to help the people
rebuild their homes and livelihoods following the disasters in Indonesia.
