Dorchester Arts Centre: Possible Move to Corn Exchange

Dorset Echo report

'Mark Tattersall, artistic director of Dorchester Arts, said: “Dorchester Arts currently occupy the Grove School building on School Lane, which acts as our administrative hub, the venue for around 50 events a year and where we host a number of community organisations and classes. “In the long term we see the The Maltings building on Brewery Square as the ideal venue for a fit-for-purpose arts facility and a move to the Corn Exchange is a logical stepping-stone towards that, allowing us to develop our audiences and have a town centre presence. “If everything goes to plan we expect to be operating from the Corn Exchange from this summer and anticipate being there until summer 2018.”'
