On Friday 12th December, 5.30 – 8pm a blind auction, hosted by Liverpool’s very own and not-to-be-missed Paul O’Keefe, will provide the
opportunity for all to bid for those works they are interested in. The proceeds will be donated to The Artists’ Benevolent Institution.
This will be a very exciting event, one not to be missed and a great opportunity to acquire a piece of work by a prominent artist or celebrity of our time.
‘Can you work out whose work is which?’
The Artists’ General Benevolent Institution is one of the oldest charities in the UK helping artists since its foundation by J. M. W. Turner in 1814. It assists professional artists, sculptors, painters and designers, who, through accident, illness or old age, cannot work and earn. Widows and orphaned children of artists are also eligible.
