News: Vic Reeves Donates Painting To Hepatitis Appeal

Jim Moir, aka Vic Reeves, is one of the artists who has donated work to a forthcoming fundraising charity campaign.

Lottery Ticket Buyers will also have the unique chance to own one of 20 original artworks from the likes of Gavin Turk, Schoony, Dougie Wallace, Ceal Warnants and Ben Eine. Each £10 ticket will raise money for The Hepatitis C Trust.

Moir/Reeves has painted a picture of the Elephant Man, Joseph Merrick, and says: "I think everything I do is art. I don't really differentiate between painting, acting or comedy." 

The aim is to raise money and also awareness of the Hepatitis C Trust, the national UK charity for hepatitis C. Founded, led and run by people with personal experience of hepatitis C. Art on a Postcard's main objective is to eliminate hepatitis C as a major health concern by 2030.

90% of funds raised from lottery ticket sales will go to support The Hepatitis C Trust in achieving their goal.

All artworks have been made by the artists especially for the lottery. 

The Lottery opens tomorrow and will run until 30th April. Tickets are exclusively available on CultureLabel.com via this link.

Postcards, limited edition prints and deckchairs will also be available to purchase through CultureLabel.com.
