Venues & Facilities
The Arts Centre
The Arts Centre is the perfect venue for most events. With a large extension built in 2006 and a brand new kitchen installed in 2008, we can accommodate most functions - from plays to parties and from meetings to lessons.

Main Hall
The Main Hall is an excellent venue for small theatre productions, cabaret, live music, dances and rehearsals. It consists of a level floor, with a brand new raised stage area (with wing space), installed in August 2007, at one end. Level access is provided from the car park, and through to the Critics Club bar.
Meeting Room
The Meeting Room can be set up for a variety of different uses. These include committee meetings, presentations, lectures, and even small rehearsals. It has immediate access to the wings of the main stage in the hall, making it an ideal dressing room. In addition, a removable partition wall allows it to be opened up into the Critics Club bar during functions, to accommodate larger numbers. The room has its own independent lighting, and is equipped with a whiteboard, flipchart, and digital projector.
