Christmas will soon be upon us, and we’re all looking for original gift ideas. Luckily, you can always rely on the Northern Quarter to help you out. A special kind of print fair is taking place there this month: at Kosmonaut bar on Tariff Street. ‘Skint Fair’ aims to showcase quality art and prints, both at reasonable prices (hence the clever name). The Fair was established in Leeds, and this is its first trip over the Pennines. This one-day-only event will have 12 stalls by up-and-coming illustrators and printmakers from across the region. A full list of the artists in attendance can be found on the Facebook page, below. Alongside the paintings and prints, you’ll find zines, posters, merch, totes, and cards for sale. There will also be exhibitions and one-off workshops.

Sat 19 Nov, Kosmonaut, 10 Tariff Street, Northern Quarter, Manchester, M1 2FF, Tel: 07496977443, 1-7pm, FREE, www.facebook.com
