Welcome

A local success story...

We are proud to say that Cranleigh Arts Centre earns 85% of its income from ticket sales, room hire, merchandising, coffee bar and bar. Only 15% of our income currently comes from public funds, whilst many arts centres depend on around 50% of their income coming from regular public funding.

Your support is important to us…

Help us continue to offer a good quality arts and workshop programme by…

- visiting the coffee bar whilst browsing our latest exhibition

- spreading the word about our events and workshops

- becoming a ‘Friend’ of Cranleigh Arts Centre for just £28 a year and benefit from advanced booking on all our events.

- taking a moment to fill out event feedback forms and help us improve our service

- popping a small donation in the box each time you visit

- giving us your time and help us as a volunteer.

- sponsoring an event at the arts centre and benefit from some free publicity for your business. (New opportunities available, email marketing@cranleighartscentre.org for more info)

 

Due to cost of stamps, we've had to change how we distribute our brochure

Since the price rise of the humble stamp, we've had to reconsider how we circulate our programme of events. We will now be using a local leaflet distribution service to deliver our new brochures to every home in Cranleigh.

However we will continue to mail out to Friends of Cranleigh Arts Centre and anyone outside of GU6 who has bought tickets here in the last six months.

Don't forget you can also stay in touch via our website, enewsletter, facebook and twitter!

There are also three disabled parking spaces in the car park behind the Arts Centre.

 

Refreshments

Coffee Bar

Our coffee bar is open during opening hours and events. We serve refreshments, snacks, ice-cream and cakes. Why not pop in for a drink and enjoy our latest gallery exhibition?

We have recently added some great new products to our coffee bar and will continue to add some more fabulous food during the year.

Toast and toasted teacakes – from 10.00 am we are now offering toast and jam, or a lovely buttered toasted teacake. We also have a range of new cakes from Sugar & Spice, including muffins, millionaire’s shortbread, brownies and flapjacks.

Hot Chocolate – for those marshmallow and whipped cream addicts out there these can now be added as an option on our hot chocolates – so forget the calories, sit back and enjoy!

On film nights we are offering a range of alcoholic and soft drinks at the coffee bar, including small bottles of sparkling rosé, lagers and beers. At the bar on comedy and music nights we have a range of draft beers and wines by the glass, so come early and relax.

Wifi available

Check your email and update your facebook in our coffee bar and gallery area. Just ask at the coffee bar or box office for the wifi log on.

Licensed Bar

Our fully licensed bar sells a selection of wines, beers, ales and lager (bottled or on tap), spirits and soft drinks. The bar is open 45mins before and during most events.

 

Calling all Volunteers!

Help! We need you!

Cranleigh Arts Centre is a registered charity which relies heavily on the help of volunteers to stay open.

Volunteering can be a great way to give back to your community, make friends and meet new people but it can also open up a door to opportunities though gaining new skills and experience.

Whether you have a couple of hours every week or are just available to help once in a while we’d love your support.

We currently have opportunities in:

  • Marketing,
  • Accounts,
  • Technical,
  • Administration,
  • Exhibitions,
  • Hospitality.

    Full training will be provided. If you’d like to help or want to find out more email volunteer@cranleighartscentre.org
