24.01.2022 D-90: WE HAVE A DREAM! We have a dream to bring the Eiffel Tower to South Bank! A dream that will only take 1000 people to donate $17 (or even 17 people to ...give $1,000! We are proud to partner with Les Compagnons du Devoir living near Byron Bay Laurent and Thomas. The two Mastercraftsmen from MullumJoinery Wood & Metal (see previous Facebook posts) want to build a replica(exactely 1:100) of La Tour Eiffel right here in Brisbane and we are going to help them out. To assist in funding this exciting project, we have launched a Crowdfunding campaign, which is now live on: https://www.kickstarter.com//bring-the-eiffel-tower-to-sou Our goal is to raise $17, 000 in 30 days. Sounds impossible right? But we do love challenges. So OUI, we know this is a huge challenge, but the saying many drops make a river has never been more pertinent! It is an all or nothing project, which sadly means that if we dont reach the $17,000 target, the project will not proceed. Should it succeed, the 3m high Eiffel Tower will be inaugurated during the Official Opening of Le Festival 2019, and every donator will have one or a few rewards such as their name on the mini Tour Eiffel! Cest super, non? So, the secrets out Lets share the project as much as possible! We hope you are as excited about this as we are! Allons-y! #LeFestival2019 #TourEiffel #CompagnonsduDevoir #MullumJoinery #France
