Selected artworks from the Galway Cartoon Festival's hit exhibitions go under the hammer from 12:30pm to 3:30pm this Saturday, June 22 in the Town Hall Theatre gallery-bar. This is your chance to own one of twenty framed cartoon prints by a remarkable artist and help grow the city's internationally respected celebration of disrespectful art.
Wine and cheese are laid on by Tigh Neachtain and Sheridans respectively, while wielding the hammer - a show in itself - will be champion auctioneer Kevin Hasset. The ingenious Gerry Hanberry and Justin McCarthy provide musical accompaniment.
Along with an exhibition of magnificent work by Brady Izquierdo Rodriguez from Cuba (opening on Friday at 5pm in the same venue ), this extravagant brunch forms part of a "taster weekend" for the next Galway Cartoon Festival which begins on October 4.
