The Arts Centre, which was inaugurated in 1991 by the Prime Minister John Major, has a 305 seat theatre, with fly-tower, dressing rooms and orchestral pit, art studios and gallery space, a pottery, music teaching rooms, a recital area and practice rooms. In the foyer there is a large bronze sculpture of Athena by Sir Eduardo Paolozzi and major series of his original prints. Throughout the year there is a varied programme of concerts, recitals, plays, and exhibitions by pupils, parents and visiting artists and performers. The Friends of the Arts Centre enables parents and friends of the school the opportunity to give their active support.  If you would like to become a Friend of the John McIntosh Arts Centre please click here to download a Membership application form.
