MAG’s Charity Street Art Auction at Kosmonaut

As Stevenson Square’s Outhouse project can attest, Manchester does not lack when it comes to street artists. With this in mind, Manchester-based charity MAG (Mines Advisory Group) has teamed with ContinentalShift and Kosmonaut to host a street art exhibition and auction. Some of the North West’s best graffiti and street artists have produced canvases for the event – including Himhallows (pictured) and Hammo, whose mural work can already be seen on the walls of Kosmonaut. This launch night will also include live painting from some of the artists on show, barbecue food, and music from the ContinentalShift DJs. Food, booze and live art. All for charidee.

Fri 9 Aug, Kosmonaut, 10 Tariff Street, M1 2FF, 5.15pm, FREE, www.facebook.com/events/532515313473277/
