In Memory of Joanna - Fundraiser for HeartKids
Joanna Romanos, formerly Barr, was Artlab’s Principal Projects Conservator who passed away suddenly last year on 17 January.

To observe Jo’s anniversary, we held a fundraiser for HeartKids in our courtyard next to the “Heart” sculpture (Moved On by Rick Clise). HeartKids was Jo’s favoured charity due to a personal connection.

Staff and friend’s of Artlab baked some terrific cakes and we asked for a gold coin donation for a delicious slice of cake.

Work colleagues, North Terrace Precinct colleagues and some of Jo’s clients attended, despite the very hot day. The event was very successful and we raised a substantial donation for HeartKids. It was lovely to be altogether at this event to honour Joanna.

Jo is missed from the Artlab family.
