===================================

OVADA (Oxfordshire Visual Arts Development Agency) exists to facilitate and promote access to high quality visual arts for all the residents of and visitors to Oxfordshire.

In 2009 we are presenting a season of contemporary visual arts featuring artists from Oxfordshire and the surrounding area. The programme will include regular exhibitions at OVADA's gallery space in the centre of Oxford as well as events, performances, installations and activities around the City and County in non arts spaces.

In 2010, the Old Fire Station building will be re-developed by the charity 'Crisis' as a centre for the arts and homelessness, to include a gallery, performance and dance spaces, to open summer 2011. There is much planning and fundraising work for OVADA to undertake in being part of this visionary development, and this will be the primary focus of OVADA's activity throughout 2010. As such OVADA's regular gallery programme will cease from January 2010 to allow this work to take place and for building work to commence. In the run up to 2011 there will also be an important role for the organisation to play within the city as the visual arts development agency working closely with its founding stakeholders on off-site projects and empty shops projects, all of which will continue the organisation's core mission of supporting artists.
