Consistent with government advice in relation to the Coronavirus (Covid-19) concerning visits to public buildings including theatres and places of public entertainment it with great sadness the Board of Trustees have decided that the Arts Centre will close for all performances, screenings, events and activities with effect from today 17th March 2020 until further notice. We cannot estimate how long this will be for but will be providing regular updates on our web-site, social media and by emails to audiences, Friends and supporters.
The first consideration of the Cranleigh Arts Team and Trustees is to help keep our community safe at all times.
Arrangements are in place in relation to refunds where tickets have been purchased for cancelled events. Advice will be sent out to ticket holders of cancelled events through our ticketing system. Please wait to be contacted by a member of our Box Office team as we are extremely busy at this time.
While ticketholders are all entitled to a full refund for cancelled performances, we as a charity are dependent on ticket income. If you would like to make a donation in lieu of a ticket refund, that would be much appreciated. Please visit our website and hit the donate button or follow the link below as continued support for our work in the community.

This is a tough decision to have to make but it is in the best interests of our wonderful volunteers and staff, audiences, visitors, supporters and Friends alike. The coming weeks and months will be difficult for many and uncertain. However, of one thing I am confident which is that our marvellous Arts Centre will see this through and begin doing again what we do best – to enrich, entertain and inspire our community.
