Red Party Tasmania

Hotel Soho, Hobart

The Australian Medical Students Association (AMSA) will be holding their second Red Party this year to help raise both funds and awareness on the importance of HIV and AIDS related issues.

Red is the theme as it’s a very powerful colour and is internationally recognised as the colour for AIDS.

The Red Party is an ideal way for student to proactively make a difference!
