2016 Event

The 6th Annual UPwithART was simply incredible, and extremely successful in both fun and finance!

Vance Lemon ‘busked for change’ on the red carpet to welcome the (almost) sold out crowd and those passing by. The crowd, a mix of people from all walks of life, brought together for their love of art, a passion to end homelessness, and support of Unity Project – sparking an energy in the Palace Theatre that was truly something special!

Trying something new was well worth it – the ‘Money Now’ live auction encouraged individuals to reach deep into their pockets and support Unity Projects core needs… and that they did, raising just over $15,000 in 5 minutes! This year’s My Life in Colour Award honoured Wyn and Lucretia Geleynse as Unity Project’s most inspirational, influential and artful person(s) of 2016.
