Everything about Blackfriars Arts Centre totally explained
Blackfriars Arts Centre is a theatre and community centre located in
Boston, England built on the site of a
mediaeval friary. The Blackfriars friary was formed some time during the
13th Century. The first written record is from
1288 when it was noted that the friary had been rebuilt after being destroyed by fire. In
1300 the friary housed a total of 29 friars. Blackfriars was closed during the reign of
King Henry VIII after he separated from the
Catholic church. The surviving building, which is believed to be the dining room, was converted into a theatre in
1965. Blackfriars is said to be haunted by a friar, who hides sharp objects left by theatregoers under the stage.
Nowadays, the building hosts a vibrant programme of exhibitions, performances, workshops, classes and activities. There are popular wall hung art exhibitions by such artists as the British contemporary artist
Craig Kerrecoe, talks by well-known public figures such as
Ann Widdecombe and a children's theatre festival to keep the kids busy over the holidays.
The centre is also home to
Stump Radio
on 87.7fm during July/August. The station serves Boston with local presenters and help from nearby Spalding's
Tulip Radio with presenters and setup.
