Launch of the McCrory Award at Private Exhibit

The McCrory Award

by Gingersnap | damian-lewis.com | June 15, 2022

Today, June 15, 2022, invitation-only attendees gathered for a private viewing of an art exhibit showcasing exclusive photography pieces of Helen McCrory to support the Sir Hubert von Herkomer Foundation and to honor The McCrory Award. The foundation – which Helen was the former Patron of and is now patroned by Damian – gives access to free art and media workshops for disadvantaged children “…so they can express their inner artist” and flourish. Other featured photographs that were donated by friends include Fay Ripley, Mark Strong, Eddie Redmayne, Helen Bonham Carter, Sienna Miller, Jude Law, Sadie Frost, Billie Piper, James Purefoy, Harriet Walter and Harry Treadaway, all who posed for Debbi Clark, photographer and CEO/Founder of HvH Arts Foundation.

The McCrory Award was announced that evening, with Damian presenting the award to three young HvH Arts Foundation artistic recipients. The foundation is dedicated to supporting children and young people who are gifted in their art, yet many do not have access to resources, training or support to fulfill their dream. The McCrory Award and charitable mentorship will make their dreams become a reality. Helen always believed every child should have equal opportunities and accessibility to the arts.

Helen McCrory and Damian Lewis Attend Wimbledon 2019 – Day 11

At Men’s Semi-Finals

by Gingersnap4Helen | helen-mccrory.com | July 12, 2019

It wouldn’t be a summer without Damian and Helen enjoying some tennis. Our favorite couple were spotted in the Royal Box during day 11 of the Wimbledon 2019 Championships at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London, England on Friday, July 12, 2019 to watch Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal reprise their 2008 Wimbledon final in Friday’s semifinals. Damian enjoyed the company of David Beckham and Eric Bana who were in attendance nearby, but something must have been very entertaining, as Damian and Jude Law had quite the laugh together – and we have the pictures to prove it!
