Artists supporting the Arts with Online Auction

divider

Cokethorpe School is thrilled to unveil its inaugural Online Arts Auction, a celebration of creativity and artistic talent that will launch on Sunday 25 May. The auction will culminate in a one-day pop-up exhibition at Cokethorpe’s historic Mansion House on Saturday 14 June, offering a rare opportunity to experience the full collection in person before final bids are placed.

This original event will directly support the development of the arts at Cokethorpe, not only enriching opportunities for our own pupils but also fostering creativity within the wider community.

A Message from Our Lead Artist Ambassador, Gabriella Anouk

"I’m excited to support Cokethorpe’s artistic endeavours - it’s an honour, especially as an alumna and former art scholarship student. This school was instrumental in nurturing my creativity and passion for the arts, and it’s a privilege to give back and help inspire the next generation of artists."

Thanks to the generosity of exceptional artists, including Gabriella, our auction will feature over 50 original works, spanning a diverse array of artistic disciplines. From captivating contemporary pieces and evocative landscapes to sculpture, ceramics, and fine jewellery, there is something for every collector, art enthusiast, and first-time buyer. Whether you are looking for a statement piece to transform your home, a unique gift, or an opportunity to invest in emerging artistic talent, this auction presents an unmissable chance to own something truly special.

Bidding will open on 25 May and close at the conclusion of our exhibition on 14 June.
