TICKETS

We have been partially funded by the Arts Council: that means we still have to cover a portion of the costs of the project so we have a range of ticket options including FREE tickets!!

If you're gainfully employed, the suggested donation is £10 per session for those which will help cover the costs not covered by the funding.

OR any donation amount from £0 under the 'PAY WHAT YOU CAN' tickets available. We appreciate whatever you are able to give in order to support us to continue making work with our Katumba community and beyond.

Please do not let finances be a barrier to you attending, NO QUESTIONS ASKED-we consider self identification enough.
