PHOTOGRAPHER Kelly McDonald, above, is one of the master editors giving children in hospital a picturesque lift over Christmas. Volunteers from the The heART Project photograph the children in hospital and then digitally add a fantasy scene to the finished print. The project, which in previous years has gained widespread media attention, involved a team of 110 volunteer photographers 10 cities around the world photographing children on green screen. The finished portraits portrayed them in a
magical Christmas scene with Santa. This was the first time the project has been taken overseas. “Working with kids is what makes my heart sing and giving my time and art to kids that have to battle every day is my way of giving back,” Kelly McDonald, who runs Garden Babies Fine Fairy Art, said. McDonald, of Frankston South, said she had spent a morning photographing patients at Monash Children’s Hospital “with a bunch of the best and it made my heart sing”.
Have your say Draft Events Policy Workshops have been held with Councillors and key internal stakeholders to draft a comprehensive policy to provide a clear decisionmaking framework that identifies the economic, environmental and social costs and benefits to the community of any event. It also seeks to outline pricing guidelines that address not-forprofit, community and for-profit events.
The aim of the Draft Events Policy is to provide a clear framework for the delivery of events in the community to ensure safe, equitable, accessible and sustainable opportunities and outcomes for all stakeholders, including businesses, visitors and residents. Your feedback will finalise the process and help us ensure the overall policy meets the needs of the community.
