Some changes to Dorchester Arts' autumn programme of events have been announced.

Despite delays to building works at the Corn Exchange, the team at Dorchester Arts worked to maintain an autumn programme by moving many existing shows to other venues in and around Dorchester.

Unfortunately, one of those venues - Herrison Hall - has had to temporarily close following damage to its roof.

The team has managed to relocate shows due to be staged at Herrison Hall and all tickets have been transferred to the new venues and dates.

Dorchester Arts is set to welcome audiences back to the Corn Exchange in early December with a line-up of festive and celebratory events.

Here's what events are taking place:

  • Wednesday, October 6 - Tenebrae: Drop, Drop Slow Tears at St Mary's Church
