The Hut committee are delighted that we are often used as a venue for Artsreach events here in Powerstock.

Artsreach is Dorset’s rural touring arts organisation, giving rural communities all over Dorset the opportunity to see and participate in high quality arts events in their own villages.

Artsreach is a charitable organisation (registered charity no. 1058198) and aims to make ticket prices accessible to everyone. It receives regular funding from Arts Council England, Dorset County Council and North, West, East Dorset and Purbeck District Councils, but also depends upon attracting good attendances. When holding an event, venues keep a percentage of box office sales and raise their own proceeds from holding a bar or raffle etc.

Liaising with performers and village promoters Artsreach puts on live performances covering small and large-scale theatre, live music, dance, comedy, literature, film and puppet shows. It also tours high quality visual arts exhibitions and holds participatory workshops and project work with professional artists and practitioners in local communities.
