The NABS Art Auction is back for 2024 and launches online today (3 October). 

More than 300 pieces of art have been pledged by a wide range of people from within the agency world, as well as from artists, photographers and illustrators with close association to our industry. 

Notable contributions have been made by Sir John Hegarty, Rosie Arnold, Graham Fink, Mark Denton, Ewan Paterson and Dave Buonaguidi, along with the likes of Cornelia Parker, Rosie Barnes, Sam Pooley, Stan Chow and Jim Downie. 

All of the art can be viewed and bid for online from today. For the first time in NABS Art Auction history, the industry charity is also holding live auctions for the artworks in London, Manchester and Edinburgh later this month. 

Jon Peppiatt, NABS Trustee and chair of the London Art Auction committee, says: “We have been blown away with the generosity of so many people who have contributed some wonderful pieces and I urge everyone to get involved, have a good look through all the work, come to one of the events but critically start making some bids to help raise much needed funds for NABS.’ 

Kate Harris, regional director, NABS, says: “Our committee chairs, including Pep, and committee members have utterly dedicated themselves to encouraging people across the industry to submit their work to the NABS Art Auction, and we’re grateful to all of our artists for their time and creativity. Please bid generously – demand for NABS’ services is high, and we rely on donations to meet this rising need.”  

Funds raised from the Art Auction will help NABS to meet continued and rising demand for its services. The charity’s support team have seen a sustained increase in calls in recent years, with a 13% hike year-on-year following a 53% increase the year before, representing 4,500 calls in 2023.
