SHOEBOX ART AUCTION AND EXHIBITION: 

A CHANCE TO BUY UNIQUE  SCULPTURES CREATED BY LEADING ARTISTS INCLUDING DAMIEN HIRST AND GRAYSON PERRY 

Forty leading contemporary artists have created rooms from their childhood inside of shoeboxes in response to a call to help the vulnerable children we support. 

This work is being auctioned on the 18th March but you have a chance to place a bid NOW by completing our Absentee Bid form. This is a rare opportunity to own an original piece of work from one of the UK’s leading contemporary artists.  Damien Hirst, Grayson Perry, Marc Quinn, Ronnie Wood and the Chapman Brothers are just a few of the contributing artists.  Artworks can also be viewed at www.shoeboxart.co.uk. All proceeds from the sale will support our arts-based therapeutic services for vulnerable children.

From 19th – 20th March Kids Company and the Bryan Adams Foundation will be hosting an exhibition at the Haunch of Venison gallery. The shoeboxes for this exhibition were created by established artists and children from London schools and Kids Company’s centres.
