Winter Gala and Benefit Auction raises over $54,000 for QLD artists

20 June 2019

This year’s Winter Gala and Benefit Auction was our most successful fundraising event to date. With your help we raised an incredible $54,850 to help Queensland artists realise projects through our IMA Belltower program, launching this Saturday 22 June.

Thank you to the artists, performers, partners, sponsors, committee members, ambassadors, auction bidders, and guests who made the night so special.

A special thanks is also in order for our generous hosts The Calile Hotel and Gala partners The Cove and Barambah Organics.

The Institute of Modern Art acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land upon which the IMA now stands, the Jagera, Yuggera, Yugarapul, and Turrbal people. We offer our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first artists of this country. In the spirit of allyship, the IMA will continue to work with First Nations people to celebrate, support, and present their immense past, present, and future contribution to artistic practice and cultural expression.
