Area events are the ‘shop window’ of The Arts Society: they need to be open to the general public, introduce The Arts Society to wider audiences, showcase the full range of topics from the Directory, inspire local Societies to innovate programming. They should lead the way in terms of accessibility and inclusivity, and showcase a modern, open image for The Arts Society.

Area events should complement the programmes of local Societies and should promote and raise the profile of The Arts Society beyond existing members and reflect the broad spectrum of learning opportunities available at the organisation.

Events may be held in person at a suitable venue or via Zoom.
