The Courthouse Arts Centre

The venue offers comprehensive artistic and outreach programmes in an atmospheric and intimate space, hosting a wide variety of multi-disciplinary arts events and workshops. Our programme includes: Theatre, Dance, Music, Film, Visual Arts, Comedy, Literature and an Education/Outreach programme. We are committed to offering emerging artists a platform to showcase their work.

The Courthouse Arts Centre is a flexible performance space and Gallery. As a former Courthouse it has a large downstairs space and a gallery upstairs where audiences enjoy a bird’s eye view of any performance.

The flexibility of the space allows for variations in how it is employed. This has been appreciated and exploited by many artists and performers using the space. Free form dance performances, theatre in the round, staged events and workshops have all been held here as have more intimate candle lit events such as the Courthouse Café.

We use both the upstairs and the downstairs area as the Gallery space. The main space, downstairs, is wheelchair accessible.
