Beards of Manchester

An Exhibition by Beards Of Manchester
October 2010 - January 2011

Beards of Manchester is a hairy initiative all in the name of Charity. It is a calendar featuring the city and some of its hairiest inhabitants.

Beards of Manchester searched high and low for 12 magnificent beards to feature on the 2011 calendar, which is now available at various outlets in Manchester (for details see here). We asked Mancunians to snap a picture and submit it to our beard gallery. By late September 2010, the Beards of Manchester had received a stunning 209 beard photos. The “beard team” (Chris Horkan and Samantha Bail) picked their favourite beards and invited them (and their owners) to a photo shoot with Manchester-based photographer Gill Moore.

The calendar was launched on Thursday 21 October with an exhibition at Common on Edge Street. All profits of the calendar sales go to the Lifeshare charity, which supports homeless people in Manchester and Salford. The exhibition will be on at Common bar until January 2011.

The Calender is available from behind the bar at Common and also online at http://www.fredaldous.co.uk/product_108000473.htm for only £10
