Artists supporting Lou’s
Acclaimed artist Wendy Sharpe and award-winning author and tech CEO Kim Chandler McDonald are collaborating to raise money for Lou’s Place. For the special fundraising exhibition, HER SHOES, Wendy has created 52 signed pastel drawings – each representing a woman who - irrespective of background, ethnicity or age – is on average, killed through domestic violence weekly in Australia. The exhibition, a co-production by Wendy and Kim, is showing at Juniper Hall, Paddington, from 29 April to 21 May.
Kim’s last book, ‘Postcards from Tomorrow’, illustrated by Wendy, continues to raise funds for Lou’s Place.

Jane Whiston has been a long-term supporter of Lou’s Place, for many years playing a significant role in the Lou’s Closet team. But in her day-to-day life, Jane is an artist who enjoys painting both abstract and representative work. Recently, Jane created a website, Whiston.com.au to sell her work online to benefit charities that meant something to her. She selected 3 charities: Lou’s Place, Guide Dogs and the Butterfly Foundation. 100 % of all sales are divided by 3 and donated to these charities. Her project “Art for Purpose” aims to bring the artist and the art buyer together to make a difference for organisations and the people they support. Thank you, Jane for your generous work and your thoughtful contribution to Lou’s Place.
Lou’s Place is so grateful for these wonderful artist initiatives. Thank you!
