Halsway Manor, National Centre for Folk Arts is a Charity that – for almost 60 years – has created opportunities for thousands of people to discover, explore and enjoy the diverse traditions found across the UK and beyond. Many have never participated in folk arts before – but go on to become lifelong enthusiasts.
Nestling in the Quantock Hills in six beautiful acres of gardens and grounds, Halsway is committed to excellence and opportunity for all with a broad programme that covers enjoyment and learning for all ages, professional development, the creation of new work, and stewardship of our heritage.
Your membership goes towards providing subsidised spaces for young people on our ‘Halsway Young Folk’ programme, supporting early career artists through our development retreats and providing bursaries for people who might not be able to attend courses due to financial reasons.
Halsway Membership: £35 per person per year.
