A charity art auction will showcase works from 48 artists to support an arts initiative in Sussex.
Artists for the Arts, an auction in aid of the Seaford Contemporary Illustrators and Printmakers (SCIP), will be held both online and at The Crypt Gallery in Seaford from July 29 to August 9.
The event features original works donated by artists including Fatboy Slim, Louise Lockhart, John Bond, Emma Carlow and Rob Lowe (Supermundane).
Alice Carter, co-founder of SCIP, said: "Every week we see how access to our workshops helps children and young people.

"We see them grow in confidence and build connections with peers.
"Access to creativity and culture is a human right, and we want to grow our services to have a lasting, positive impact on people's well-being using the power of art and we are so excited that so many artists agree with us and want to support our mission."
Funds raised will help SCIP continue providing free creative workshops for children and young people, as well as launch a new service for adults in Sussex facing social isolation and loneliness.
The physical exhibition will be held at The Crypt Gallery, 23 Church Street, Seaford, and will be open Wednesday to Sunday from 10am to 4pm.
