10x10 Drawing the City London is an annual fundraising event established by British architect Tim Makower and organized by charity group Article 25 that gets its name from the 100-square grid that captures one particular area in the city of London.

Each square of the grid is assigned to 100 participants, who are typically some of the U.K.'s most well-known and emerging architects, designers, and artists. Participants will then create and donate an original work of art inspired by the buildings and public spaces within their assigned square. For 2014, The Renzo Piano-designed Shard will be the center of the grid.

This year's set of participants include notable names and 10x10 favorites like Norman Foster, Ivan Harbour, Sheila O'Donnell, C.J. Lim, Piers Gough, Chris Wilkinson, textile designer Celia Birtwell, artists Norman Ackroyd and Roger FitzGerald, and 10x10 founder Tim Makower himself.

Online bidding for the art begins November 4 through November 25, followed by an exclusive evening auction event on November 27 at The Shard. The auction aims to gather funds to support Article 25's work on building projects for vulnerable communities around the world.

After the success of the 10x10 Drawing Weekend this past August, Article 25 hopes this year's auction will raise the bar and reach its £100,000 goal to aid in essential healthcare building projects in the developing world. Last year's 10x10, which focused on East London, raised £90,000 to design and build Children’s Centres across the African continent.
