Officially opened in June 2009, the award winning £4million Sidcot Arts Centre provides an inspirational creative environment with state of the art facilities for music, art and drama.
The iconic building required an equally striking style and website to help draw visitors – and exhibitors – from outside the local area.
Armed with this as the loose brief – and advice that the staff were “arty, not techy” – we created a website that could be easily managed with next to no technical know-how as well as a distinctive brand style that they could reuse throughout their marketing communications.
In particular the website effortlessly promotes the latest and forthcoming events while giving visitors a chance to share their own experiences of past events.
Key features:
- Online content management
- Dynamic front page showing latest events, classes & comments
- Controlable featured event in a prominent position
- Branding of top banner specific to a defined event
- Online booking and payment
- Ability to register to the site
- Automatic newsletter mailing to registered users.
It is early days for the site but already the Arts Centre has seen an increase in take up for its courses and exhibitions.
