Arts and entertainment
We have many arts and cultural activities to offer. So whether you want to make the most of your free time, learn something new or find an activity for the weekend we hope there's something for you in our borough.
Our work in arts development is mainly focussed on youth arts. Details of regular activities can be found on the Youth and Connexions Service pages and in the 'Things to do in Barnet' for children and young people directory. You can also see details of holiday activities.
The borough’s main arts centre is artsdepot in North Finchley. Here you will find an imaginative programme of theatre, dance, music, art exhibitions and classes.
In the summer, there are community festivals in every part of the borough. Many local parks become a bustle of activity as communities come together with stalls, music, dance, workshops, food and funfairs.
Barnet has joined theSeer.info which is a comprehensive arts information resource that provides all sorts of information on arts organisations, artists and events.
