Support us Our appeals Performing Arts Centre February 2025 update The most significant change to the Performing Arts Centre is that the canopy over the outdoor performance space has been completed! The canopy will provide shelter from the elements during outdoor performances, and will allow the young people who may struggle to transition into indoor spaces to take part in performances. The outdoor seating areas have also been finished, with room at either end for sensory plants to be planted. The hope is that the fencing will also come down in the next week or two, freeing up walkways that have been closed for a number of months. We’re looking to get the autistic young people with complex needs we support into the building to explore it in the coming months, ahead of formal learning starting afterwards. Plans are being developed for a grand opening in the summer. Find out about our Fundraising appeals Manage Cookie Preferences
