Toowoomba Fundraising Art Extravaganza
Creevey Russell Lawyers in Toowoomba hosted a fundraising exhibition for MND Queensland in October at their office featuring works by artist Allan Cooney.
A large crowd of art lovers gathered to enjoy great art, fine wines and tasty gourmet treats. The night raised around $7,000 through an auction of several pieces by Allan as well as work by his mother, Faye Cooney and work by Suzie Killen, plus a raffle, and this will help MND Queensland continue to provide crucial support to people affected by MND.
MND Queensland CEO Lisa Rayner spoke about our work and paid tribute to supporters, artists and attendees, some of whom had lost a family member to MND.
Many thanks to Dan Creevey and staff, Allan Cooney, the other artists involved and all who attended and bid on the art. The evening capped off an incredible year of support from the generous people of the Downs.
