BUDDING Damien Hirsts are being urged to exhibit their work at an exciting new art centre.

Any non-commercial organisations, including schools, will have a chance to use the art gallery space at the new Great Northern leisure complex in Manchester.

Marketing assistant Silvia Dunn said: "We thought it would be nice for people to get the chance to show their work to their friends, families and to the general public.

"We are sure there are some tremendous artworks out there. Who knows, we might discover a budding Picasso or Lucien Freud?"
