Kia Ora Gaza poetry & art fundraiser

Art by Ellie Smith, Wilson O'Halloran & Tim Reed

Poems by Vaughan Gunson (Kia Ora Gaza website administrator)

Hello,

I've just produced three broadsheets of poetry that also feature the artworks of three New Zealand artists: Ellie Smith (photographer), Wilson O'Halloran (collage artist) and Tim Reed (drawer & printmaker).

I'm making copies of the these poetry broadsheets available for sale to raise funds for sending Kiwi aid to Gaza. For more information on Kia Ora Gaza go to www.kiaoragaza.net

The broadsheets are folded A3 sized paper, printed high quality on both sides. When folded the broadsheets are sized A6 (pocket sized).

I'm selling them three for $20 (postage included). All money to go to Kia Ora Gaza.

To purchase, make a direct payment to the Kia Ora Gaza bank account: Kia Ora Gaza, 03-0211-0447718-000, Westpac Bank, Onehunga branch.

Or write a cheque for ‘Kia Ora Gaza’ and post to: Kia Ora Gaza, PO Box 59-007, Auckland.

Afterwards, email Vaughan at svpl@xtra.co.nz with your name and address. The broadsheets will be posted to you.

The inside page of all three poetry broadsheets are attached to this email. This will give you a good idea of what each one looks like.

The poems are about the personal and the political, parenting, the town of Hikurangi in Northland, love, creativity, escape, and social responsibility. Some of the poems have been published previously in New Zealand poetry journals and magazines.

Be in quick, as the money is urgently needed by Kia Ora Gaza to fund the six member team to the other side of the world, and to purchase the necessary aid for the people of Gaza.

Regards,

Vaughan Gunson
