Friday May 1st 2026. Soho 73’_A unique exhibition of street photography, Soho 73 is collection of images captured by the architect Robert Stallard while he was a student living in Soho in 1973. In 1972 Soho had been described by the chairman of Westminster Council’s Planning Committee as “a down-at-heel-neon-lit-slum”. Robert Stallard countered this description by creating an empathetic, unfiltered record of the diverse community that lived amongst Soho’s Streets and gave the area life. His photographs intended to document Soho for his final dissertation and illustrate his thoughts on how development could take place without losing the area’s unique character and characters. For the 2026 exhibition, some of the locations of the original photographs have been matched with contemporary images. Taken by artist Alice Stallard, @girl_in_a_tshirt_ 2026 the images follow the footsteps of her father to explore Soho’s continuity, destruction, development and resilience. “These photographs have not only become an important archive of the very fabric of Soho, much now disappeared: markets, shops, restaurants, clubs, cafes, but also the people and the fashions of the period, from bustling office workers to gurning winos. He even took a photo of a flyer announcing the very first Soho Society meeting.” Clive Jennings. @clivejenningsart The exhibition starts on May 1st and continues until the 30th May. As part of our Soho 70’s season including the release screening of the ‘Anarchy! McLaren Westwood Gang’ film box set and the on-air launch day of Slack City radio on DAB in London. The night features a screening of the film in Soho Museum/ All Is Joy’s boutique in-house cinema, with a panel discussion with dir. Phil Strongman, photographer Ray Stevenson and Slack City Radio’s Ben Osborne. @djbenosborne Tickets for screening @eventbriteuk /e/soho DJs in the bar will be celebrating the London Launch of Slack City Radio - @slackcityradio the new non-mainstream music station on DAB in Brighton, Manchester, Norwich, Portsmouth and #London (switch on day Friday 1 May). #streetphotography #1970s #djs #community culture documentary slackcityradio

THE SOHO MAKER – AFTER HOURS Hosted by The Museum of Soho Due to continued demand, the exhibition has been extended through 28 February. During London Fashion Week, TildArt presents The Soho Maker – After Hours — an exhibition exploring Soho’s enduring spirit of craftsmanship, rebellion, and reinvention. Through sculptural garments crafted from reclaimed materials — including recycled bicycle inner tubes fused with luxury fabrics — TildArt redefines sustainable fashion as collectible contemporary eco-luxury. Each piece is conceived as a wearable work of art. Featuring selected tailoring pieces by iconic Soho tailors Sir Tom Baker (@sirtombaker ), Chris Kerr (@chriskerrbespoketailor ) & Mark Powell (@markpowellbespoke ) honouring Soho’s sartorial heritage. Featuring photography by Damien Frost. Janet Hudson-Holt (@mousester_chief ) designed a miniature TildArt box. Janet is a costume professional and miniature maker, and this piece was created especially for the exhibition, inspired by TildArt. Upcycling becomes the new bespoke. A tribute to Soho’s makers: bold, independent, unapologetically original. Not trend. Transformation. 📍 75 Dean Street, Soho, London 📅 Extended: 22–28 February 🕛 12–6pm Hosted by @themuseumofsoho @allisjoysoho Drinks by @thekingofsoho Music curation by @britishrecordshoparchive We are delighted to feature a performance by Rachel D’Arcy (@racheldarcyland )renowned Soho jazz singer.
