‘By the Community for the community’
BAF Art week will be back 4th -11th July 2026
Every year we are always blown away by the local creativity that fills our community
Running strong for 13 years, this week-long celebration brings Bulwell’s people, places, and stories to life. It’s all about local pride—creativity, heritage, and connection, straight from the heart of our community.
Since 2021, BAF has been revitalised under new trustees and a growing network of members. One Vision Partnership became its new host, providing strong leadership that has helped the team reach new heights.
Partnership
Bulwell Arts Festival is built on teamwork. We work alongside local schools, community groups, artists, businesses and everyday champions who care about making Bulwell brighter.
We continually connect with musicians, theatre makers, and creative facilitators to run workshops, pop-up performances and public art projects that make creativity accessible, visible and valued in Bulwell.
Through Bulwell Arts Festival (and our wider work), we’re creating long-standing resources so schools, families and community groups can keep up the creativity all year round!

Thank You to all our community partners!
We had a wonderful 2025, which wouldn’t have been possible without our wonderful partners across the community.
