The Exhibition and Sale has become an important fixture for both artists and lovers of Art and open to advancement and growth to enhance our ability to showcase Rotary and Fine Art for the purpose of raising funds for projects locally, international so as to benefit all.

This Rotary year the Rotary Club of Altona 'continues' to raise funds for our local community, our families, youth, childrens health and well being. Our Major Charities who will benefit from our fundraising efforts from the Hobsons Bay Art Show are:

• Breakfast in Schools – The Rotary Club of Altona is a proud community partner of the Altona / Laverton Community Bank ® branch Bendigo Bank. Together we worked to develop and fund a Breakfast program in Altona Schools. This program will provide breakfast to school children, who may otherwise start the school day without a meal. This program will make a difference in the local community by giving our local school students a healthy breakfast. This is turn has proved to assist educational outcomes.
