We’re very excited to report that we’ve won a Bucks Spark Award! Buckinghamshire Culture held their prestigious awards event recently and we were really excited to win an award for Outstanding Contribution to Culture in Bucks. 

Our Chair, Sam Burke, attended the ceremony and tells us: ‘It was extra special as the Bucks Culture award category was created by the judges especially for us at Visual Images Group. They wanted to acknowledge our significant and ongoing contribution to culture across Buckinghamshire, through our Bucks Art Weeks event.

'It was a privilege to accept the award on everyone’s behalf. Well done everyone!’

Thank you to Buckinghamshire Culture and thank you to all our members and supporters who make Bucks Art Weeks the fantastic event that it is. We’re thrilled!
