Arts Ambassadors
Could you help us spread the word about HAC? We are looking for adult volunteers who can help us make sure everyone in Harrow knows we’re here! There are lots of different ways to help, from making sure your local shops have our posters up to advertising our events online!

Playlist
We’re looking for local musicians who would like to get their music heard by over 150,000 people every year! We’re creating a playlist made by artists from in and around Harrow to play in the public areas of the main building at HAC.

Young Producers
Interested in music? Want to create your own events? As a producer you can get involved in managing our 100% music nights for young people, and get yourself a qualification for doing it! Ages 14-25.
