At the end of the trail, the designed guitars will be auctioned off to raise money for grassroots music projects and venues throughout Greater Manchester via a special fund put together by the Forever Manchester charity, in collaboration with Manchester Music City.<\/p>\n
Ben Reed, Head of Creative Development, at Wild in Art, said: \u201cManchester has always been a place for music and we\u2019re delighted to unveil Music for the Senses,\u201d Ben Reed, Head of Creative Development at Wild in Art, said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s our first ever guitar trail, and we think that there is something really magical about repurposing musical instruments into stunning works of art.<\/p>\n
“This is also the first time we’ve put together a trail showcasing brand new art while at the same time highlighting some of Manchester\u2019s iconic music inspired artwork. It has enabled us to explore creativity in a range of different art forms including new murals around the city by some of the very best street artists in the business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Charlie Langhorne, Managing Director and Co-founder at Wild in Art, added: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be back in Manchester, Wild in Art\u2019s home city. Music for the Senses is a slight departure from our traditional sculpture trails and we have loved working with our partners at Manchester City Council on our mission to showcase artists and support grassroots venues in the city.<\/p>\n
\u201cHuge thanks must go to everyone who has supported us; our sponsors, artists, musicians and, of course, all those who have donated guitars to be part of the project.”<\/p>\n
Manchester punks Loose Articles, who feature in Hammo\u2019s artwork and have supported the likes of New Order and Foo Fighters, also said: \u201cManchester is the centre of the universe and its beating heart is music. We are buzzing to be part of this city-wide initiative that celebrates music for all.”<\/p>\n
