Discover the art and gastronomy of Manchester this September, from iconic destinations to unsung hidden gems, with this handy map from Buy Art Fair.
With Buy Art Fair, the North’s leading art fair, gracing the iconic halls of Manchester’s Old Granada Studios, September 24-27, the organisers have produced this handy guide to 26 key cultural locations.
Designed by Manchester artist David Gee, this artful ‘doodle’ map features Buy Art Fair’s top picks for dining and discovery at the city’s heart, as well as a few gems further afield.
Thom Hetherington, CEO of Buy Art Fair, says: “Buy Art Fair provides an unprecedented boost to Manchester’s art scene every autumn, but we want to encourage our visitors to also engage with the galleries and institutions that are open in the city year round.
“As well as Buy Art Fair, we run a number of major restaurant events and regularly judge and review for national hospitality awards and food guides. Everyone I meet who is passionate about art is equally fanatical about food, so this seemed the perfect opportunity to pair our two specialisms into one beautifully illustrated guide to Manchester’s cultural hotspots.”
Works from over 500 established and emerging artists will fill the exhibition space of Old Granada Studios from the 24th to the 27th September for the North’s leading art fair, Buy Art Fair. Live works and interactive artist studios will bring the fair to life for seasoned collectors and art-curious individuals looking to dip toes in to the world of art buying.
