Glen Baxter Leads Multi-Generational Art Auction for Soho’s Last Remaining Primary School
This summer exhibition and charity auction showcases a diverse group of artists connected to Soho Parish Primary School, the last remaining school in London’s famous Soho district. Funds raised will support the school’s vital creative
programmes for local children and families.
Featured artists include Philip Sutton RA, Glen Baxter, Max Lamb and Olly Fathers among many others, and a display of pupils’ artwork in the window of the gallery celebrates the school’s nurturing of the next generation of artistic talent.
The exhibition is taking place in the gallery of The Bindery London, located on Hatton Garden and donated to the school for this charity event by Dorrington PLC.

Three Generations of Creative Legacy
This year’s auction highlights a rare and heart warming feature: three generations of London-based artists exhibiting together. Renowned artist Glen Baxter is joined by his wife Carole Baxter and their son Harry Baxter, all of whom have artwork in the show. Their grandchildren Edie and Freddie Baxter, ages 5 and 10, are current students at Soho Parish, and
their artwork is featured in the students’ mini-exhibition displayed in the gallery window — celebrating the school’s rich creative legacy.
“Soho Parish is a small school with a big heart — and an even bigger creative spirit. This auction is a celebration of the incredible artistic talent within our community, across generations, and a way to ensure every child continues to have access to joyful, enriching experiences in the heart of London. We’re proud to honour our legacy while investing in the future.”
