Auctions, Art and Jossy Goodness!

We’re coming to the end of the Can’t Stop the Serenity 2011 season, but it’s not over yet! We’re tallying up all the donations from this year’s events to determine the 2012 Global Donation Total… will it top the 2010 record of over $140,000? We sure hope so! But while the bean counters are counting the beans, there’s still lots going on!


If you want to win some awesome prizes, we’ll soon be launching our Global Auction for Equality Now. There are some fantastic goodies up for grabs, and you won’t want to miss your chance. We’ll have more news on this soon, so keep your eyes peeled on www.cantstoptheserenity.com, and on our Twitter and Facebook.


Have you heard about our Art Contest? We’re reaching out to all the creative folks out there to design a logo for next year’s events. Our Art Contest has been running since 2009 and has discovered some amazing artists. This year’s contest will run until 14 October, so if you’ve got the creative spirit, get your entries in soon! The winning design will be featured on our website, merchandise and more!


Now, we promised you Jossy goodness and here it is! In case you missed this last week, we’ve released this year’s awesome event introduction video! If you were able to make it to a Can’t Stop the Serenity event this year, you may have had the opportunity to see this year’s video. But if you missed out, not to fret! You can watch it now on our YouTube Channel. This year’s intro was packed to the brim with big damn heroes. We’re extremely honoured to have received a very special contribution from Joss, who has inspired us once more to continue to fight the good fight for equality. Other special guests include artist Jason Palmer, writer Jane Espensen, actors Tahmoh Penikett, Claire Kramer, Eliza Dusku, Dichen Lachman, Summer Glau and a host of Browncoats from across the globe! Watch it now!. You can get your hands on the Joss Whedon designed Equality Now shirt (as worn by Joss in the video) for just $20 from the Equality Now Online Store.


FInally, we’d like to thank all of the wonderful people who have volunteered to coordinate Can’t Stop the Serenity at a global level in 2012. Our fabulous local event organisers are pouring over the applications as we speak, so that we can bring you the best team possible in 2012.


And don’t forget, registration for 2012 events is open, so why not grab some friends and start planning a Can’t Stop the Serenity event in your area?
