Gelato Messina is ditching its waffle cones and paper cups in favour of beautiful, handmade ceramic bowls at an inner west event this Sunday, April 14. And it's doing so to help raise money for All Together Now — a non-profit dedicated to reducing racial discrimination and abuse around Australia.
The Potters in Protest fundraiser event will be held at Marrickville's Join the Dots Artists Studio and Workshop. Purchase a handmade ceramic bowl for $30 and it'll be filled — for free — with Messina (vegan options available). It's a fairly simple idea but noble nonetheless, with 100 percent of the profits going towards the cause.
Over 150 bowls will be available, donated by some of Australia's most talented potters, including Milly Dent, Alana Wilson, Bridget Bodenham, Public Holiday, Mud Australia, Nicolette Johnson and Vicki Grima, plus more.
Potters in Protest will run from noon to 4pm, unless sold out prior. We suggest you go early and scoop it out.
