River Capital partner Murdoch Childrens Research Institute Art for Science

Since 2005, River Capital has proudly supported Art for Science and are pleased to confirm their involvement for 2011. Art for Science is one of Australia’s premier charity art auctions with 100% of all proceeds donated to the Murdoch Childrens Research Institute (MCRI).

The biennial event has attracted artwork donations from prominent Australian artists raising almost $1 million for MCRI since its inaugural auction in 2005. Artworks are auctioned at a ticketed event with all proceeds raised being donated straight to the research and work of the Institute.

This year’s donated artwork comes from featured artists like Sam Leach, Andrew Browne, Michael Zavros, Sally Ross, Darren Sylvester, Jon Campbell, Brook Andrew and Steven Harvey.

All of the 60 donated artworks will be exhibited at the Nellie Castan Gallery from the 11-14th October before being auctioned off at the Art for Science event on 15th October at Luminare in South Melbourne. This ticketed event promises to be a special night.

River Capital, as a founding sponsor is pleased to be involved with such a worthwhile cause that assists in such invaluable research.

We encourage everyone to take a look at the donated artworks online or at Nellie Castan Gallery and show their support for this admirable cause.
