Arts Development Grant 

Lucy Tomlins

Pangaea Sculptors' Centre is a platform supporting contemporary sculptors and fostering technical excellence. Their development, sought to explore the potential for opportunities to bring more sculpture and sculpture-related programming to the district; researching and designing potential ideas that were site/context-specific, realistic, relevant and wanted.

Lucy said, "the flexibility within the structure of the award, to enable the outcomes to be developed from the process of research, alongside the support received from within the Council, have made this an extremely generative and positive experience. The potential impact of this award is far reaching and ongoing".
