The open call for Music for the Senses has now ended. Thank you to all the artists who submitted designs.

What’s next? A panel of project representatives will review and shortlist submissions based on creativity, feasibility, and alignment with the event’s vision.

Shortlisted designs will be showcased to sponsors at an exclusive event on Monday 19 May 2025. Sponsors will select their design and selected artists will be commissioned to bring their design to life on a physical guitar.

The guitars will be displayed across Manchester for 8 weeks, from 7 July – 31 August 2025.
