Whats On

Hello all,

CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: Prism Arts has made the decision to suspend our weekly Studio Programme and Creative Arts sessions in Carlisle and West Cumbria from today, 16 March, until the end of term on Friday 27^th March.  This is due to a member of staff self-isolating. We are taking this measure as a precaution meeting current government guidance and our own policies.

No-one in or connected to the organisation has been diagnosed with Covid-19. We decided on this measure as we have several vulnerable people who attend our sessions and our main priority is to ensure their safety.
The office is remaining open, so if you have any questions please get in touch with the office directly; 01228 587691

We will be reviewing this during the Easter Break, which ends on April 14^th. We will be in touch in advance of this date to let you know when we plan to reopen our workshops.

We hope you all understand and that you all keep yourselves safe and well during these challenging times.
