Surf, Art, Music &Woodfired Pizza: Happy Days book launch in Byron Bay to support local charity S4C

Nov. 30, 2010 - PRLog -- Surf art eco diary, Happy Days 2011, will enjoy an official launch at a special intimate evening on Wednesday December 8, 2010 at the Treehouse on Belongil in Byron Bay. All are welcome, admission is free.
“From the beginning, Happy Days has been about the beauty of the ocean, the joy, inspiration and energy we draw from it on one hand, and its vulnerability to pollution and human impact on the other,’ says Happy Days Diary editor and publisher Marion Poehland. ‘With the book launch we’re inviting everyone to celebrate surfing and the ocean while raising funds for marine conservation organisation Surfers for Cetaceans (S4C).’
The evening will kick off around 6pm with two local musicians Barry Ferrier and Kellie Knight performing as a duo to set the scene for a special screening of world renown surf photographer Ted Grambeau’s latest mind-blowing works, including underwater images of whales, mermaid Hannah and surfer Dave Rastavich on the big screen.
Happy Days will donate 20% ($5) from every diary sold on the night, plus all proceeds from ticket sales for a hamper of goodies to be raffled off on the night will go directly to S4C.
Happy Days Diary 2011 features inspiring images by international surf photographers like Hilton Dawe, Ted Grambeau, and Steve Barolotti, alongside mindblowing photos and artworks by the likes of Celine Chat, Damian Fulton, Djuul Price, Frida Lezius, Heather Ritts, id-iom, James McMillan, Meegan Feori, and the tigapics collective to name a few.
Environmental consciousness places Happy Days Diary 2011 as a limited-edition run of 2000 copies, printed locally in Australia on Ecostar 100% recycled FSC certified paper with soy based inks.
The book launch will take place on Wednesday, December 8 at the Treehouse on Belongil, 25 Child Street, Byron Bay from 6pm.
