The Paris edition of the Manchester-based magazine Shoestring launches with a party on 19th July, an exhibition in a day and live music.

The Paris edition launch sees a new concept, where three photographers will shoot, develop, print and exhibit their work all in one day. The photographers are based in Manchester and each has their own specific area of expertise. The live music stage boasts a double-bass ensemble, folk, and jazz outfits. There will also be a raffle with prizes such as Fred Perry clothing and art supplies. Entry is £4 and goes toward fundraising Shoestring magazine, and the next edition: Berlin.

Shoestring magazine is a bi-yearly arts publication for new and emerging artists. It focuses on writing, illustration and photography, and is concerned with finding great talent amongst new artists.
