There are loads of regular things happening weekly and monthly at the Arts Centre. These are mostly organised by whoever runs the session, and you need to book directly with them, or just turn up. Click on anything below for more info, and how to book.
These things do change from time to time so, while we try to keep all this up to date, it’s always good to check with the contact person for the activity for the latest, up-to-date information.
Some things take a break with the school holidays.

Vida De Tango, dance class with Fernando
Fernando writes: “We believe that everyone can dance tango, even with two left feet.
“The Argentine tango is a dance created by a connection with a partner and your shared connection with the music. Argentine tango is improvisational, a walk to the beat and while there are very few steps there are infinite ways of sharing those steps.
