The Paper Mill Fundraiser

Once up and running this artist-run gallery will be a festival of paper with an exhibition space dedicated to paper-based works, a library chock-full of local and international zines, workshops and classes as well as a studio residency program. But they need your help to get there!

Overview

The Paper Mill is somewhat of an experiment. A little taster of what the City of Sydney is capable of when it puts its arts grass roots boots on. And yet here is the catch — the council is not The Paper Mill. Rather, The Paper Mill is led by a committee and a board of directors, all of whom are living, breathing, volunteering artists. And they need your help! Before The Paper Mill officially launches on Tuesday 7 September they require a few extra dollars to whiten those walls and polish those windows. So what better way to lend a hand than by lending an ear and an eye to two massive midweek nights of music and performance.

Here is the drill:

Day 1 | Oxford Art Factory
Wednesday 25 August 2010
7.30pm – 12pm
A stellar line-up with Lucy Hall, Eye to Eye, Bird Automatic, Dara Gill and The Paper Scissors.
Get your $15 tickets now at Moshtix or $18 on the door

Day 2 | The Paper Mill
Thursday 26 August 2010
6.00pm – 9.30pm
A theatrical performance spectacular at The Paper Mill with Scott Sandwhich, Zoe Norton-Lodge, Sam Pettigrew, Friends with Deficits and Zoe Coombs-Marr.
$12 on the door (with a generous discount for your charity if you attend both nights!)

Once up and running The Paper Mill will be a festival of paper with an exhibition space dedicated to paper-based works, a library chock-full of local and international zines, workshops and classes as well as a studio residency program. And the best thing of all? It is an artist-run gallery in the city. No hidden agenda. Just there. And if there is one, then that is only just the beginning.
