The d.@rt centre offers community classes in various style of dance, drama, art and music. Whatever your age there is probably an artistic activity or course to suit you.

State of the art music facilities include rehearsal rooms, recording studios and a digital media suite with the latest music software programmes are available for hire as are
the two drama rehearsal spaces and a purpose built
dance studio with fully sprung floor.

The latest area to be opened is the exciting outdoor
performance space and water walls. The d.@rt supports Fair Trade through it’s coffee shop and local artists are invited to exhibit work in a light and airy foyer.

Due to demand we are increasing the number and variety of holiday activity courses for children,
selecting our practitioners with care in order to provide quality courses at an affordable price for Hedge End, West End, Botley and the surrounding areas.

Tom Owton and Sam Hannam were two of the young designers who worked with David Booth of Symbiotics Design Consultancy, to create a commemorative seat for the Sculpture Garden at Wildern School.

Developed over 5 Saturday morning sessions, the seat was installed and formally dedicated to Emma Gabb ( a past pupil who died last year) in a reflective ceremony attended by close family and friends on Wednesday April 25 th 2007.

The performance space is now open for bookings for classes and by the local community for open air performances.
