About

The Friends of Prema is a sister organisation to the Arts Centre. The Friends is a charitable association which raises funds through subscription, planned events and generous donations to support Prema Arts Centre.The Friends' committee meet regularly to discuss new ideas for trips, parties and other arts-related events. You don't have to join the committee, your role can be just to take out a Subscription with us, sit back and enjoy the benefits of priority mailing, invites to parties, exhibition openings, priority booking … not to mention that we give you discount on everything you do at Prema. Bargain!

Where Does My Friends’ Subscription Go?

Throughout the programme, you’ll see that we offer Friends Prices - these are for people who have taken out a subscription with the Friends. The monies raised through these subs go directly into providing services to help with the smooth running of the Arts Centre.

The Friends Of Prema have bought a new heater for the Upstairs Room and a digital camera to catalogue what we do. They part-funded our People & Prema Newsletter and the plan for 2004 is that the Friends will buy a piano so that we can develop a participatory programme of live music making here at the Centre.
