Tutti would be delighted and honoured if you would contribute one of your unsigned paintings, to be sold by silent auction at the Silent Auction, Secret Artist reception.

Take Up Thy Bed & Walk
Closing 24 November 2012
Creator, Gaelle Mellis, is truly a trailblazer and has made an enormous contribution to South Australian arts as both a theatre designer and a disability activist.
Take Up Thy Bed & Walk is a subversive performance about women, disability and fiction. It starts out from the portrayals of disabled women in 19th century literature and ends up at the most infamous intervention by a major recording artist with disability within popular culture. Made collaboratively by a creative team that includes former members of acclaimed theatre-makers Ladykillers and an all-star cast, Take Up Thy Bed & Walk will be an intelligent, beautiful, unsettling and humorous performance event not to be missed.
Accessible, Audio described, Auslan interpreted, Guide dogs, Companion card
