This is England- Exhibition at Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery

This November, Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery presents portraits of the full England football squad and
manager of the EURO 2020 team by artist Matt Small, on public display together for the first time.
From Harry Kane, Jack Grealish, Harry Maguire, Marcus Rashford to Ealing’s star footballer Bukayo
Saka, This is England features the most successful national team since the World Cup winners of
1966, afterreaching the final of the recent tournament. The set of paintings depict a group of
players from a diverse set of backgrounds who not only made history with their sporting
achievement but who collectively inspired the country through their example of teamwork and
stance on equality, inclusivity and racial injustice.
Commissioned by the FA and exhibited at the St George training ground during EURO 2020 finals,
the artworks celebrate the diversity of what it means to be English today.
Clare Gough, Director of Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery said: “We are delighted that Matt Small’s
striking depictions of the Euro 2020 team will shine a light on the inspiration the England team gave
the nation this year, exemplifying teamwork and inclusivity, values embodied by Ealing born-andbred star Bukayo Saka.”
Artist Matt Small said: “Through their resolute and determined stance on various social issues and
matters of inclusion and compassion for all, this group of players have come to represent the modern
face of England, a multi-culturalland where people from all walks of life now call the country home.
“The England squad have demonstrated a desire to bring out the best in each of its members by
showing respect to the different attributes they all bring and then utilising them to the betterment of
the team. I hope that my paintings of the team can help continue to inspire the country to follow that
example too and become a society where everyone feels valued and they belong. When this is
achieved then this England will become a united place where we can all move forward united as
one.”
Matt Small’s work will also feature in Pitzhanger’s upcoming exhibition Race, Class and the City. He is
represented by JG Contemporary, Acton.

Ealing4Fundraising Workshop 27 October 2021 10:00 – 11:00

An overview of how to use the Ealing4Fundraising portal to identify funding for your project.

About this event

As more people volunteer and causes become more popular, funding them has become a challenge. The pandemic has placed greater pressure on the community and voluntary sector, it has increased the needs of people at a time when budgets have become smaller.

Every project comes with a budget that requires fundraising, having the right tools, resources and technical knowledge is vital to aiding you on the journey to your financial target.

Taking place online via Zoom, this event has been designed to give the community and voluntary sector based in the London Borough of Ealing an overview on the benefits of accessing information on fundraising by using the Ealing4Fundraising portal. The Ealing4Fundraising portal was created to make it easy for organisations and community groups to identify funding, without having to wade through a mass of information much of which can be unconnected to their project.

Benefits to You:

– Become more informed about funding opportunities

– Be able to identify new and potential sources of funding with as little as three small steps

– Find funding opportunities that are linked to your organisation’s objectives, making it easy for you to meet their criteria

– Learn how to find information about your local area that can support and strengthen your bid

– Find out how to receive regular funding updates via email without having to complete a regular search

– Learn about funding from a wide range of funding agencies, local, national and European

– Discover how other organisations have managed to secure funding using the Ealing4fundraising portal

Ealing & Hounslow Community Voluntary Sector will be co-hosting this event with Ealing Council’s Community Engagement Team, and special guest Timothy Crampton of Idox, who will take you through the portal showing you how to connect to funders that are more likely to fund your projects.

Join us for an hour at 10 am on Wednesday 27th October 2021– free to attend via Zoom.
