History

The Erin Arts Centre is located in the south of the Island on the site of a former Methodist Chapel. Since its foundation in 1971 it has played an important role as a venue for music and theatre. The centre is staffed by volunteers and helpers dedicated to the promotion of the arts.

The Isle of Man Bank Auditorium forms a suitable facility for music from recitals to choral concerts. The auditorium has more recently been used for the showing of films after a digital projector and screen were installed. The Erin Arts Centre also holds the Sir James Mellon Gallery, which opened in 1994. The gallery is ideal for craft and art exhibitions.
