About Our Cultural Centre
The Isles of Scilly has a rich history of cultural experiences, providing an inspiring bolthole for generations of artists and performers.
St Mary’s has a vibrant and burgeoning arts scene and this project will create an important indoor space to experience the work of local artists, as well as an indoor venue for touring arts and performers.
The cultural centre can be set up as a cinema, providing an opportunity to bring films over to the islands on a regular basis. For performers who are used to staging landscape theatreoutside in Scilly, it brings a welcome all-weather venue to see plays and performances onthe island.
The setting can be formal or relaxed, with seating arrangements that include standingevents, theatre in the round, cabaret-style performances, and traditional staging with rakedseating allowing for audiences of up to 150 people.
