We programme a number of exhibitions throughout the year, with a particular focus on local artists, and work that links in with our professional programme of live events.
For more information, or for artists enquiring about programming an exhibition, please contact Laura Walker, Creative Learning Officer.
Every year Hill View Primary School in Banbury run their own version of the National Gallery Take One Picture project. Children spend a week focusing on one piece of artwork – from Van Gogh’s Sunflowers to Gustav Klimt’s Tree of Life – and produce their own artwork in response. This year the artwork that has been selected to focus on is ‘A Shipwreck in Stormy Seas’ by Claude-Joseph Vernet.
This exhibition runs from Tuesday 21st January – Saturday 22nd February and can be viewed during our usual opening hours (Mon – Sat, 9:30am – 4:30pm).
After the success of the previous IWD Female Founders Fair, we are very excited to be hosting another Fair in 2025! The Female Founders Fair celebrates female-led independent artists, makers and businesses in Oxfordshire. There will be a chance to meet the women involved and treat yourself or a loved one to a unique handcrafted gift.
Saturday 8th March from 10am – 2pm at The Mill Arts Centre
