Hello All,
Just wondered if you would be interested to come on this journey with me and see if we can make a difference.
All you need to do is follow my page and give me feedback. Anything will be greatly appreciated at this stage.
The Last Straw Project is something that has been rolling around in my head for a long time.
As artists we go and visit our most vulnerable people and listen to their stories.
With their permission we take photos of their hands or feet and record their stories of how those hands got there.
This turns into a yearly exhibition and the funds go to the charity involved.
My vision is that we book out the convention centre in Brisbane, even country wide!! IMAGINE THAT
This will then (hopefully) get into some of our high school as a project focussing on social responsibility, gratefulness, kindness, problem solving and fundraising.
At this stage we are focusing on charities linked to homelessness, but DV is on the horizon.
Come with me and see what we can do together.

Hello people,
I’ve contacted many charities to see if I can visit them with the possibility of hearing their stories and to start taking photos.
I have a few places that I can go, but that is just much later in the year. And was hoping to start ASAP.

I would like to know if any of you may have a contact that I can get in touch with.

Yip, I rock at taking selfies! But I had to share a photo of the first meeting of THE LAST STRAW (or that is the name we are going with for now)
Unfortunately Francesca left just before I remembered to take a photo.
These ladies have given me such amazing feedback, ideas and encouragement. And they🥰 reminded me that I don't and CAN'T do this by myself.😀

Thank you beautiful woman!
