New Work projected today...

Ok, some new illustration work is being projected today.  Swing in, have a coffee and check it out.  Details up tomorrow about the artist and his portfolio.

Excellent feedback, not too late for submissions

Just heard how our Silent Stories section went down rather well yesturday.  We had a few technical issues and were only able to start running around 4pm but it got there in the end.  We'll be doing a massive post at the end of the festival listing all the work shown so stay tuned.

So, today we are screening work from Dave and Faye but it's not too late to have your own work shown.  Submission details below:


The below details are for people submitting to the Collections category or have still imagery they wish to submit:

• Create a picture file 1024 x 768 at 150 - 300 DPI resolution.  Black or white background depending upon what you feel is more suitable for your picture.

• Paste your picture, make the picture as large as possible.  The black or white background can serve as a border.  If you wish you can crop your picture.

• Save the file as a JPEG.  The file name should read "SSPB COLLECTIONS <your name here> <title of piece, if untitled ensure you number them>"

• Send it to sandbar_manchester@live.com.  Ensure the subject is "SSPB: Collections submission"

Within the body of the e-mail have these details  that will be relased to the public in this order:

So, welcome to our first blog post! Manchester has been hit by the Not Part Of festival, a city wide festival in Manchester showcasing a large range of nights, and we're doing our bit too.

Over at Sandbar we are showcasing narrative videos which require no sound as well as artist's still work. We will be uploading the video details at the end of the festival. Expect updates on here as the festival progresses.
