What is the Arts Society, formerly NADFAS?

Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, NADFAS has been rebranded as The Arts Society to make a clearer statement about the nature of the organisation.

Through The Arts Society the arts can be brought to more people in more ways, making the most of the network already in place, but also engaging with a new generation.

Appreciation of the arts is promoted through lectures, study days, visits and tours as well as volunteering activities, such as Church Recorders, Heritage Volunteers and Young Arts.
