The gift that goes on giving – Festival funds raised for Christchurch


The devastating 2011 Christchurch earthquake was just before the Newtown Festival Street Fair.
Money raised that year (with the help of Fire Service Volunteers) has frequently been used as underwriting – contributing to many Christchurch creative projects and artists, way in excess of the funds raised.
Newtown Festival has just helped the fundraising album Songs for Christchurch
