Manly Art Gallery Italian Art & Style Fundraiser
BUONGIORNO!
The Manly Art Gallery & Museum Society fundraiser is being held in conjunction with a fantastic new exhibition celebrating local Italian heritage and featuring the artworks of one of the Gallery’s founders in 1930, Naples-born Antonio Dattilo-Rubbo (1870-1955).
The exhibition, “Maestri – Influences from Italy to Australia”, showcases Dattilo-Rubbo, an influential painter and teacher, and will run from 19 September to 30 November. The exhibition is supported by Sydney’s Italian Cultural Institute; the Consulate General of Italy and support from some of Sydney’s leading Italian philanthropists.
The evening includes lots of delicious Italian food from local restaurants, Italian cocktails, wine, along with music from the Beach Symphony and great auction and raffle items.
Money raised is in support of the Manly Art Gallery & Museum. Funds from events like this enabled the Society to contribute $10,000 to the Gallery to help restore some of the beautiful artworks from one of the Gallery’s founders Antonio Dattilo-Rubbo, which will be on display at the Gallery during the event.
