Art Activator Andrea Hamann talks about Art for Bales, an initiative with Kate Pittas in support of Australia’s farmers suffering by the current drought situation.
Andrea is an artist and mum based in the Southern Highlands
Art for Bales started after speaking to a farmer about the recent drought situation and how difficult it is to feed their animals
The idea sparked when her friend and fellow artist Kate Pittas said that she would donate the sale price of a painting to buy a bale – and the painting sold instantly!
Art for Bales initially started with 10 artists and has now grown to over 200 artists through Instagram and raised over $54,000 in just 3 weeks
