Photographers across the North West are being given a unique opportunity to showcase their work in an art sale supporting The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation, to take place on Thursday 30th October.

For one day only, Manchester’s renowned Mr Thomas’s Chop House will be transformed into a gallery displaying a selection of work by the region’s emerging and established talent.

The open brief will give artists the opportunity to showcase their work whilst being involved in an innovative, high-profile event to support the Charity’s essential research, campaigning and patient support.

Proceeds from each art sale will be equally split between the artist and The Foundation, although artists will be given the option of donating their work fully to the cause.

The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation is the only charity in the UK wholly dedicated to defeating lung cancer, the UK’s biggest cancer killer. The Foundation funds research programmes to detect the disease in its early stages, provides guidance and support to those affected by lung cancer and campaigns to raise awareness of symptoms as well as dangers of tobacco smoke.

The event will be open to the public and representatives from some of the region’s biggest corporate names in search of something to make their offices more stimulating.

Submissions should be sent by email as an attachment (high JPEG, 72dpi, approx 500 x 500) against a plain background to Jo Oldfield: joldfield@webershandwick.com by Thursday 9th October.
