Cut Thumb Laundry: Gimme Gimme More!
Art, drinks, food and fundraising combine.
Overview
Roaming your eyes over the exciting artistic works crafted by talented local folks is a mighty fine pastime. So is enjoying a few beverages, some snags and veggie skewers. Doing all of the above while helping to ensure such pieces, creatives and events keep on keeping on — well, that's even better.
Yes, drinks, food, art and fundraising combine at Cut Thumb Laundry: Gimme Gimme More! And yes, the evening is named after a Britney Spears song. Something much, much more important than the pop singer is on the agenda, though: helping the artist-run initiative gather up enough cash for the next big venture as Metro Arts' 2017 ARI in residence.
Artworks from Cut Thumb Laundry's Whynot and Ashfield street exhibitions will be on display, with pieces on sale via silent auction from 4pm til 8pm. Bringing your wallet is a must, given that every penny you spend on eating, drinking and art will go to a good cause — including the people making the excellent creations you'll be soaking in, with 60 percent of the final bid finding its way directly to the artists.
