Eastpak Artist Studio Auction Launch

On Monday night we headed over to a rather fancy house in Bloomsbury for the Eastpak Artist Studio auction launch.
The Eastpak Studio Artist auction is a Europe-wide incentive that has seen 77 artists and creative personalities from various countries come together to produce original creations from limited edition 'blank canvas' Eastpak bags to be auctioned off in the name of charity.

The UK portion of the auction see's 9 creatives (PPQ, Kate Moross, Zakee Shariff, Laura Dockrill, Poltock & Walsh, Daddison, David Samuel, Jamie Brown and Gary Milne) selling off 23 completely unique designer backpacks.

In the UK the auction, which see's the money raised going to support the Teenage Cancer Trust, kicked off on Monday night with lots of cocktails, fish & chips and some live bidding to get things going!  The event was held at the very impressive Mol's Place near Holborn and also featured some of the project's artists milling about, excited and talking about the project.

The bags are amazing, our personal favourites were from PPQ.  Click the link below to view and bid on all the bags on ebay.
