We are Bovey Paradiso Arts
Nestled in the heart of Bovey Tracey, the King of Prussia Building at 83 Fore Street is transforming into Bovey Paradiso Arts - a community-driven gallery, 80+ seat auditorium for cinema, theatre and music, artists’ studios and a café/restaurant. As a Community Benefit Society (CBS), we are committed to enriching the lives of our local community, reinvesting profits for the benefit of all. Brought to life by over 400 shareholders, generous sponsors and grant support, the completed Bovey Paradiso will be a welcoming multi-arts venue for everyone to enjoy.
While we complete the state-of-the-art auditorium, we are bringing the magic of film to Bovey Tracey and the surrounding areas, as well as concerts, workshops, talks and exhibitions in our gallery space and local venues. See our Exhibition and Events programme here. Our café restaurant will be reopening with a stunning new atrium extension and bar, featuring a glass roof and alfresco dining area.
