A new arts and entertainment venue in Tetbury
Goods Shed Arts is an entirely volunteer-run venue converted from a former Great Western Railway building in 2016-17. Generous support from the public and regional donors has allowed us to create a sound framework for the centre, although much work and development still lies ahead.
Undaunted, our first season of events kicks off in March 2017. Ultimately our vision is for the Shed to become a regional centre of excellence for the arts while at the same time fulfilling the local need for arts and entertainment.
At the heart of the Goods Shed vision is the ambition to encourage and capitalise on local talent in all areas of expression. There will be be dramatic performances by visiting artists. Musical performances will cover the full spectrum including dance events.
Then, opening in autumn 2017, the Goods Shed Cinema, with a programme of films aimed at all age groups, will provide the town with a new source of regular entertainment.
