The aim of the Ken Sprague Fund is to commemorate the life and work of Ken Sprague. Ken was an all-round artist who worked in a whole variety of media, but was particularly renowned for his work as a cartoonist and poster designer.

What characterised all his output, though, was his dedicated commitment to human rights, justice, peace and socialism. The aim of the Fund is to promote his vision and to encourage young artists to use their art in the furtherance of social justice, peace and tolerance.
