About Us
Riverhouse Barn Arts Centre is a community arts centre in Walton on Thames. We provide a year-round programme of events which includes drama, chamber music, traditional and modern jazz, folk music, comedy, children’s shows, cabaret and art exhibitions. We also offer a variety of classes in arts and crafts for all ages, adults, young people and toddlers.
Since opening in 1989 we have played host to great musical talents, from Nicola Benedetti to Barry Douglas, established comedians like Jeremy Hardy, Jenny Eclaire and Dara O’Briain, as well as world class jazz musicians such as Gwilym Simcock and Chris Garrick.
We pride ourselves on a breadth of theatrical and musical performances as well as a comprehensive education programme. We look forward to welcoming new and established talents in the years to come
