Did you know that the Brook Arts Hub is right next door to Anne Hathaway’s Cottage in Shottery?
We’re opening the doors of both locations for a morning or afternoon session on Friday 20 March so you can learn about volunteering at either (or both!) places.
Find out whether a museum setting or an arts hub might be the perfect place for you to volunteer! We will be armed with tea and biscuits and look forward to meeting you.
