Artists auction art to fund life-saving treatment for 23-year-old cancer patient Jac Mathot.
Leading Hunter artists are hosting Art Auction 4 Jac at Timeless Textiles Gallery to raise funds for 23-year-old Jac Mathot, who is battling stage four Ewing sarcoma, a rare and aggressive cancer.
Diagnosed in May 2024 after a large tumor spread to his spine and hip, Jac is now tumor-free following treatment with Enhertu, an experimental drug targeting a specific genetic mutation similar to one in breast cancer.
The therapy costs $12,500 every three weeks and is not covered by Australia’s Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme for Ewing sarcoma.
The Cooper Rice-Brading Foundation is matching donations dollar-for-dollar, and the auction, featuring works from prominent local artists and hosted by Denise Gold, aims to secure funding for Jac to remain on treatment for 12 months—a critical period to improve long-term survival.
The event highlights the urgent financial burden faced by patients with rare cancers and the community’s response to support Jac’s recovery.
