Volunteering

Heritage Volunteers

The Arts Society members throughout the country are involved in cataloguing, conserving and cleaning objects which are important to our national and local heritage.

Arts Appreciation

Arts Appreciation fundraise and give grants to arts projects in their local community. In a time of cuts and changes to the national curriculum, this has never been more important to support access to the arts.

Trails of Discovery

Making a Trail of Discovery is a very rewarding experience and as you create the trail you find out things you may never have known.

What Our Members Say about the Lecture Programmes

"This was the first of your lectures I have managed to catch and thought it was fabulous. By resricting the lecture to specific sections of Coventry Cathedral the lecturer made it very interesting and the time went quickly. Looking forward to the next one now, thank you."

"All of them have been brilliant and I am so grateful to everyone involved in organising and zooming them. Thank you."

"A wonderfully layered presentatation of the arts especially in relation to Finland's yearning for nationhood."
