The Art Car Boot Fair team and artists would like to say a big THANKYOU to our loyal and longstanding sponsor Vauxhall Motors who have worked with us in a collaborative and hugely trusting fashion since 2003! And a fond farewell to the fabulous Simon Ewart who is leaving GM for other roads, we’ve enjoyed a fantastic working relationship which is completely reflected in the success of every event and we will miss him while very much looking forward to working with our lovely new contact, Wendy Towler!

 The Vauxhall sponsorship means that the event is free to artists to take part in and there’s a ready supply of new car boots for artists to use for the day. With an ongoing commitment to championing style and design in the UK, Vauxhall is a keen supporter of creativity through initiatives such as the Art Car Boot Fair and the Vauxhall Collective.

The artist commissions supported by Vauxhall over the years have included Gavin Turk, Bob and Roberta Smith, Abigail Lane and Showroom Dummies, Richard Clegg, Ian Dawson, Lucia Helenka and Daisuke Sakaguchi, Spaced Out, Sarah Baker, Cedric Christie, Fashion East, The Whoopee Club, Mat Collishaw, The Literary Saloon, Sir Peter Blake, Ian Monroe, Anthony Gross & Jen Wu, Scrawl Collective, MissLed, Donald Uruquart & Studio Voltaire, Rubbish Magazine, Pearce & Ramsey and Rubbish Magazine.

The 2010 commissions include Jessica Albarn, Ian Dawson, Oliver Guy Watkins and Pete Fowler.
