For every piece of artwork sold throughout the four-day event, an Art Kit, made up of colouring books, paper and art supplies, will be donated ro a children’s hospital ward in the UK, to help children heal emotionally as well as physically.
Gina Cross, Director of South London based GAS Gallery told the Brixton Blog “We’re really excited to be bringing Delphine’s and Anna’s work together under one roof. Both artists are known for their colourful and imaginative work and have gained recognition from art collectors worldwide. As a Brixton resident for over 20 years, it was important to me that we did this show locally, while supporting a worthy cause in Art For Care.”
