Welcome: The poster shop that does good
It only felt right that we should use our talent and passion to make positive change in our city, which is why The Little Print Shop of Horrors was born. If you’re not familiar with Creative Spark, we're a creative brand agency specialising in helping brands Become Unstoppable.
Now in its 13th year, our annual charity 'Poster Shop’ event ignites the passions of horror enthusiasts and art connoisseurs alike.
Every autumn, we highlight a fresh collection of themed posters designed by our studio and acclaimed artists. In our first year, we released 50 limited-edition prints, some selling out overnight. Since then, the event's popularity has gained momentum with popular, creeptastic themes like Classic Horror, Twisted Disney, Classic Hitchcock, 666, and Netflix & Kill. Mwah-ha-ha!
We’re proud to have raised a whopping £20,000 to date, for charities like Forever Manchester, Mustard Tree, and Huntington’s Disease Association. And we can’t wait to plan a bigger than ever event for this year’s chosen charity, Humans MCR.
Humans MCR are good friends of the agency, they are an exceptional charity tackles food poverty to give respect, health, dignity, and hope to communities across Greater Manchester. We know that this winter is going to be tough for many families, with news of more energy price hikes, providing the basics like food and warmth will become a struggle. We feel passionate, that we need to help support Lewey and the team at Humans MCR with their brilliant efforts.
A message from our Founder, Neil:
"The Little Print Shop of Horrors started as an internal company piece of work to bring the various Creative Spark teams together and get them working with people they don't usually work with. It has grown year on year and gathered momentum so the project now involves partners, friends and creative artists who all contribute artwork pro bono. It allows internal teams and partners to work together on something to co-create rather than as a client brief and express their creativity in a fun way. It has still stayed true to its roots, featuring the Creative Spark’s team and even my Dad gets involved. So while it’s grown, it’s still the same initiative with a heart and twist of horror!
Creative Spark is really excited to celebrate the 13th year of our Little Print Shop of Horrors! This annual poster shop has a clear mission: to raise funds for Humans MCR. We’re supporting them for the second year running due to the critical work they do, especially at a time when families are facing increased pressure to cover even the most basic needs. With more illustrators involved and a bigger event planned, we’re aiming to make this our most successful year yet!”
Every poster purchased and every social post liked and shared helps us support our chosen charity, Humans MCR, who are tirelessly working to combat food poverty.
Much love,
