Community Hall
The Community Hall sits within the SOHO ARTS Centre site to the left of the old stone schoolhouse building when entering from Weld Street.
The hall is ideal for workshops and classes, meetings, recitals, and intimate performances. The hall is not suitable for amplified instruments that will disturb our residential neighbours, so sorry no parties. All activity must conclude at 9pm sharp.

REGULARS
Whilst it is understood that regular access to the hall may be very desirable for some hirers, the Centre does not want opportunities to be missed for special events. Regular bookings therefore need to be flexible if such a special event should arise. These will be discussed with hirers on a case-by-case basis if and when required.
The Centre Manager will manage all hall hire applications in accordance with the Centre's hall hire policy. In the unlikely event of an application is refused, the applicant can appeal to the Board. The Board decision is final and no other correspondence will be entered into.
