CULTURE FOR A GOOD CAUSE : INSPIRE’s (formerly the Eden and

Razzett Foundation ) Annual Art and Antiques Exhibition

Hundreds of works of art (including some by early 19th and 20th

century artists ) as well as several pieces of fine rustic and antique

furniture, will be on display from Sunday 13th March to Monday 11th

April. The venue is one of Victoria’s fine old buildings (number 18,

Republic Street; opposite the main post office) and the exhibition will

be open daily , (except for Friday 8th April) from 10 a.m. to 6.00 p.m.,

weekends included. Entrance is free and any donations would be

appreciated.

All exhibited items are offered for sale, with part of the proceeds going

to support the Foundation’s work in Gozo , which primarily involves

assisting children and adults with learning and physical disabilities.

Specialised education , therapy and support services help integrate the

Foundation’s community into society and into the workplace, as well as

into mainstream education. Although much input is contributed on a

voluntary basis, the broad range of specialized services and equipment

required to make a significant impact demands professional inputs from

speech and language pathologists, occupational and physiotherapists,

teachers and psychologists.

obtained by calling 21558941 , 7920 4686 or 7920 5316 and by visiting
