The Pound Arts Trust Ltd is a thriving arts organisation based in Wiltshire, core funded by Wiltshire Council, and is an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation. The organisation delivers live performance, visual arts, participatory activities and film across three distinct strands of work.
The Pound is a historic Grade II listed building converted into a 21st century arts centre acting as the hub for the arts in Wiltshire and beyond, presenting a year-round programme of professional music, theatre, dance, visual arts, film and participatory work.
Rural Arts Touring is the rural touring programme for Wiltshire and South Gloucestershire working with volunteers in rural communities across the two areas, to deliver around 60 professional live performances and 20 participatory events each year.
We curate two annual Festivals. Blue Sky Festival is a warm and quirky festival of family focused arts events and projects in June. Magic and Mayhem Festival is delicious and decadent festival of magic, cabaret, jazz, music hall, comedy, burlesque and other oddities in November.
Across all three strands of our work we deliver an in-depth Creative Learning programme, which reaches over 40,000 people each year.
