Open Doors

Open Doors is a programme of arts activity that is part of the heritage and culture offer in Newark and Sherwood. In 2023 we were awarded funding from Arts Council England to become a National Portfolio Organisation. Our three-year programme, Open Doors, increases creative opportunities for young people and underserved groups, and helps us support the needs and interests of our communities.

Take a look at what we have coming up.
