Trustees meeting

2 weeks ago we held our first meeting since we elected the new trustees. We discussed new ways to make money, commissions we are currently working on and future plans.

We have been working on Christmas card designs and a sign for the new Kune Kune pig enclosure and are about to begin work on an entrance sign for the animal centre.

Where is our artwork?

You can find our signs and banners all around Brent Lodge Park Animal Centre. See if you can spot them next time you visit.

New signs

A sneak preview of some more of our signs - these ones haven't been put up in the animal centre yet!

Phew!... it has been a busy few weeks, but our grant application forms are finally in and we managed to get our brochures printed and hold a stall at Hanwell carnival yesterday. It was wet, but a lot of fun and we had a fair amount of interest from potential artists and volunteers. We also recently appointed trustees and now have 2 co-chairs (Lynda and Sukhi), 2 co-treasurers (Matt and Berge) and 2 co-secretaries (Sarah and Hope).

Here are some recent pieces by BLP artists:

Butterflies

Last week the new butterfly house was opened in Brent Lodge Park by Steve Pound MP. As well as being a fantastic space where visitors can walk among exotic butterflies in a tropical environment, they can also see some our artwork!
Hope's picture of butterflies by the sea has been made into a badge

Sarah put together a collage of butterflies created by lots of different artists.

This picture is being used as a backdrop in the butterfly house. The background image was painted by me (Matt) and the butterflies were painted by various artists.

There are plans for a stall to be set up in the butterfly house where we can sell merchandise designed by artists.
