Where do I start….

The last few weeks have been incredibly emotional with the thought of Aunties coming to a quick end. We needed to get 3 things over the line to reinstate the lease. Unfortunately the landlords have been unwilling and uncooperative. We have not been able to come to an agreement, leaving me no choice but to vacate the property.

My heart is broken for the incredible Aunties family and our supportive community who came together to raise an incredible record breaking 26 thousand dollars in only 6 days! This will forever go down in Newtown history.

This has been one of the hardest decisions I’ve had to make.

You will not be charged for your pledge for this campaign.
I can’t thank you all enough for your generosity, messages and your support. The community has spoken, and I’m truly speechless.

Tonight will be our final party. Come down and have a drink with us and let’s share in the Aunties magic one last time.

May Aunties live in our memories in as one of the grooviest bars in town

Dear friends, family and the Newtown community.

It saddens me to tell you that Auntie Social Lounge could be coming to a quick close.
Our lease has expired its first renewal and to reinstate the lease we need to raise a large unexpected sum of rent arrears by this weekend or Auntie Social Social will be dismantled, everything is for sale and we will vacate starting this Sunday 19th November.

My heart is broken of the thought of saying goodbye and we are not ready to say goodbye!
