HEAR MORE: Local artists contribute to incognito art sale

Local artists have joined some very famous faces to raise money for the Jack and Jill Foundation through its incognito art sale.

Each piece in the collection cost 50 euro, with the special twist of no one knowing the identity of the artist until after they buy the art.

15 Cavan artists and 3 from Monaghan joined the likes of Bono and Bruce Springsteen in contributing pieces to the collection in aid of the Jack and Jill Children's Foundation.

The latest collection featured over 1,800 images and sold out in minutes.

The charity provides nursing care to over 340 vulnerable families in Ireland, including 70 families in Cavan and Monaghan.

Helen Steele spoke to The Wider View about being part of the fundraiser.
