Teesdale is brimming with arts and culture and has some fantastic venues that run a selection of activities throughout the year.

The Bowes Museum is a world renown site with a fantastic permanent collection alongside a exciting schedule of seasonal exhibitions.  The Bowes museum through its friends programme offers a range of regular talks with the curators and exhibition managers.  These experiences provide a deeper understanding behind the work of the artists and often give visitors a privileged peek behind the scenes at the museum. 

The Witham Hall is a great facility for arts and cultural activity in Teesdale.  Newly refurbished the building houses a cinema, theatre, gallery and café together with a superb gift shop.  The Witham offers a number of talks and events throughout the year as part of its programme of cultural activities.
