Harrow Arts Centre

This beautiful hall was originally part of the Royal Commercial Travellers School, before going on to house the Harrow College of Further Education. A listed building since 1983, it has been an arts centre since 1988, and nowadays it is managed by Harrow Council.

This is the only venue devoted to performing arts in the borough of Harrow, so it’s just as well there is a very mixed programme of music, comedy, theatre, film and visual arts, hosting everyone from political stand-up Mark Thomas to jazz musician Courtney Pine. At the weekends there are yoga and fitness classes, as well as live drawing, sculpture and activities for all the family.
