Gratitude (Manchester)
Gratitude is a spectacular public art installation which honours and pays tribute to the courage and dedication of NHS staff and other key workers during the coronavirus pandemic. The installation consists of a collection of 51 life-sized, "human-form" sculptures which have been decorated by local and national artists and stand together as a public expression of thanks to NHS staff and other key workers who got us through the crisis. It is the first touring show from public art producers Wild in Art, better known for their public art trails.
Gratitude will visit four UK cities; Birmingham (August 20-30), Manchester (September 3-12), Edinburgh (September 17-26) and London (October 1-10). The statues will be auctioned on October 12 to raise money for NHS Charities.
