Our annual Big Dry Friday
A day to connect city and country, providing support where it's needed most. The concept is simple, on a Friday, once a year, city people forgo (or match) what they might spend on a nice lunch or drinks and donate it to the cause.
The aim is to create long-term benefits by supporting charities focused on education, mental wellbeing, healthcare and those suffering financial hardship through natural disasters.
National Emerging Art Prize
Founded in 2021 by Michael Reid Galleries and Morgans, the National Emerging Art Prize exists to not only offer a robust and highly-visible platform to showcase artists in the emerging stages of their career, but also to provide the winners and runners up with a significant cash prize, mentoring and media exposure to further support their practice, and to provide a pathway to a long-term art career and representation.
