Friends & Volunteers
Friends of The Bullpen:
In 2010 The Bullpen will be expanding its Friends Group. The group was established in 2006 in order to provide practical and financial support to The Bullpen. We aim to develop practical support through the volunteer scheme under a lead volunteer. Interested supporters and artists should contact the administrator for more information about volunteering in the gallery and at workshops and other events.
 
Arts Council Funding

The Bullpen was granted substantial Arts Council funding to run metal-casting workshops for artists and visitors over 2009-10. The award has been used to develop our audience, to develop our artist programme and to run four large casting events.
Highlights incude the Iron Pour (August 2009) attended by over 150 visitors, including local MP Ed Vaizey. Iron sculpture for 12 artists was cast along with iron tiles for Uffington Primary School and for individual visiting participants in the workshop. Local ale & hog roast, icecream and local band Mammoth & The Drum were enjoyed as well as the exhibition in The Bullpen Gallery and the spectacle of the 'pour' itself.
 


What they say about The Bullpen:

This is an asset not only to Oxfordshire children and mature students but to artists in the area and from many parts of the world. It deserves all the help that the authorities can give it, both local and national.
