Zonta Club Charity Art Sale


James Feldman art zonta


The Zonta Club of Hong Kong invited artists to donate work, sales of which will be used to bring "quality books to underprivileged children through community childcare centres, nurseries, and schools in the territory."

I popped into The Rotunda this morning and saw a fair number of red dots, my painting among them. I savored an unfamiliar philanthropic glow and pondered which titles the would-a-been miscreants will be receiving. The show runs through 26 November.

good luck, that's not a long show though - don't know if I'll have a chance to pop by!
What is the Zonta Club?

Here's a link to their website, they've got an interesting history: http://www.zonta.org/site/PageServer?pagename=zi_history
I was impressed by these ladies. They managed to get a choice location for the show and the whole thing was very well organized. I'm told they do this in their spare time after work.

Sounds like a kind of Rotary Club for ladies on a mission!
