Story

Hi everyone, this is Akshay!

I'll be giving away a hand drawn map to one person who donates to the Birmingham Museums Trust as Museums are very dear to me and I would hate to see them suffer more than they already have due to Covid-19. Birmingham is a city I love and I believe museums are a fantastic part of it that should be protected.

For every £5 donated, I'll give you an entry into a prize draw to win a fantasy map hand drawn by myself. You can see examples of previous pieces on instagram.com/tailoredworlds. I'll draw a new one especially for this giveaway and it'll be the only physical copy produced (I may share photos of the completed piece) so you can have a one of a kind piece of artwork all to yourself! No need to worry about later postage fees as I'll be covering this myself!

The prize draw will happen on 07/08/2020. I would still appreciate any donations of less than the prize pool entry since every little helps and it'll help to preserve the culture of this wonderful city. Please message me on one of my social media accounts or akshaytailor14@gmail.com when you donate so I know how to contact you if you win.

Did you know that Birmingham Museums is a charity? They use the citys collection to bring peoples stories alive through exhibitions, special events and fun activities. They work with schools, families and local communities to inspire, engage and support well-being. Even though the doors are closed, they are working hard sharing stories from the collection, hearing personal stories and encouraging people to stay connected. They have come up with fun and educational online content as well as delivering essential support such as the Sarehole Mill Community Shop. COVID 19 is having a massive impact on them and what they do for the city of Birmingham. They are losing thousands of pounds a week because making money to run the museums, from tickets, shops and cafes, is no longer possible.Please donate to support their valuable work with local communities. Your help now will mean they can continue to support the people of Birmingham through this difficult time and beyond. Thank you.
