About
Gold Coast children's author Kate Foster, in partnership with Gallery 8, invites you to celebrate the launch of the 4ASDKids Exhibition and Auction. This wonderful month-long exhibition will showcase original pieces and signed prints by some of Australia's best children's illustrators, perfect for all of the family to enjoy, and every piece will be auctioned off to raise funds for Gold Coast charity 4ASDKids. Join us for a glass of bubbly, some nibbles, a raffle, and the exclusive first look at the exhibition pieces!
4ASDKids assists families in accessing early intervention treatment that is critical to giving autistic kids the best chance at reaching their full potential.
