BAC Building Appeal

Bridport Arts Centre has been welcoming audiences since 1974. But to make sure you continue to enjoy the best experience possible in our theatre and gallery, we now need to:

Update the theatre heating system

Repave the forecourt and repaint the façade

Improve the entrance

Replace the theatre seating

Open the main doors, relocating the box office to the front of the building

Install a lift to the gallery

Improve the gallery lighting

Create a better bar and café

Introduce an education and community space

And redecorate throughout…

The cost will be £250,000 and thanks to the generous support of organisations and individuals, we are able to start work during 2010 on external work and installing heating.

We need your help to complete the redevelopment. Please:

Support We Love BAC fundraising events

Make a donation via www.bridport-arts.com or by contacting the Director, Lindsay Brooks

Add a donation of 50p to your ticket price.

Buy a blue We Love BAC wristband for £1 when you visit the gallery.
