Notice Title

Worthing Cultural Services

Notice Description

Worthing Borough Council is inviting suitably qualified and experienced organisations to tender for the contract to manage Worthing Theatres and Worthing Museum; jointly referred to as Worthing's Cultural Services. Worthing Theatres are made up of four well managed, supported and maintained performance/cinema venues including Connaught Theatre and Studio, Assembly Hall and Pavillion Theatre. Situated in the town centre Worthing Museum is a vibrant heritage offer including custodianship of collections of national importance. The contract will be formed of leasehold and management contracts, thereby transferring the business of the council's Cultural Services and all its activities to an external party. The council is seeking to negotiate a long-term commitment with a suitable partner and is look for an experienced company, organisation or trust that combines prudent business planning as well as artistic vision and innovation. It is imperative that Worthing's Cultural Services continue to develop and thrive for the benefit of our local economy and will play a vital, front-facing, role in Worthing's future.
