Dorset in 2012 and the Cultural Olympiad

Alongside the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, everyone in the UK has the chance to be part of London 2012 and be inspired by the fun and excitement, a ‘once in a lifetime’ experience. This will be the largest cultural celebration in the history of the modern Olympic and Paralympic Movements.

There will be a mix of high quality festivals, whole programmes of activity, one off performances and exhibitions, both professional and community interests across all art forms and other disciplines, including science and sustainability.

The programme is designed to give local people and visitors to the area an Olympic experience that will never be forgotten. More information about events where you are will be found on the Dorset For You web site: www.dorsetforyou.com  and on the Visit Dorset site: www.visit-dorset.com

Many dance, theatre and outdoor performances will be found on this Activate web site, and details about Inside Out Dorset festival will be found early next year at: www.insideoutdorset.co.uk

Volunteers

Meanwhile, if you think you may be interested in volunteering, to help with the organisation and running of various events, then please go to the Dorset Volunteer Centre web site: www.volunteeeringdorset.org.uk where you will find an application form.

This is how you can express your interest, it does not commit you at this stage.

Your form will be passed to those organisers who are looking for people to help them with activities that are in your areas of interest.
