Hooray! RogueArt opened our very first exhibition project on 1st Nov 2008! Gimme Shelter is a special fundraising exhibition with drawings in charcoal by our dear friend, the renowned Malaysian artist Ahmad Zakii Anwar. This exhibition is in aid of Intan Life Zone Welfare Society in Johor Bahru, a home to over 25 men, women and children, the majority of which are infected or affected by HIV\/AIDS.<\/p>\n

Ahmad Zakii is a co-founder of Life Zone and full proceeds from the sale of this exhibition will go to building an after-care center where former residents will receive training in basic income-generating skills such as gardening, carpentry and car washing. The center will also provide former residents with small business opportunities.<\/p>\n

We are happy to announce that all twelve portraits are now sold! The portraits were also produced as limited edition prints, a number of which were picked up by several generous supporters that evening. A big THANK YOU also to all our guests and friends who showed up at the opening, and for so graciously contributing to our donation jars. There are still sets of these beautiful prints available for interested collectors and supporters.<\/p>\n

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.<\/p>\n
