(St)ART: boom fundraising auction
Date and time
Description
At boom, we like to start things. Starting movements, starting riots, starting new ways of thinking – all the time bringing on board an incredible community of people who believe in what we do and work together to nurture and grow what we started. Now, we invite you to be one of those people. To buy into a belief that creativity can do great things, and that potential lies within us all. It’s a small ask, but one all too easily forgotten. This is your chance to change that.
We're hosting our first ever fundraising auction, selling a selection of prints from issues 1-3 of boom saloon, alongside original artworks and extra special experiences. These include the opportunity to design your own neon with Solas Neon, spend the day in PYRUS's Victorian walled flower garden cutting blooms and enjoy a personalised sign writing workshop with Thomas Paints. Our lots start at £20 and each include a printed thank you for supporting us to democratise creativity for good in issue five of boom saloon and a credit in the films of boom project 003: Match Cut, which will use film to give a voice to the overlooked and underrepresented communities of Berlin. All profits from this auction will be split between boom projects, boom saloon and the artists involved; allowing us to continue our mission to democratise creativity for good whilst inspiring and empowering a new wave of creative talents to realise their own potential. Now, we ask you to realise yours; to realise the potential you have to make a difference. Join us now as, together, we start something special. We hope to see you on the night!
Coming as a group? Make a night of it and book a table, including a free drink, to ensure the best views of the action. Simply email admin@boomsaloon.com to ensure your place.
