Wingfield Barns have come back to life as the Wingfield Barns Arts Centre.

Wingfield Barns became the home of Wingfield Arts and Music in 2000 housed in a £1.4m conversion of farm buildings next to Wingfield College. The inspiration for the project was Ian Chance, the founder of WAM. The buildings are a legacy of his vision to have galleries, workshops and artist resident accomodation in the beautiful and quiet Suffolk countryside.

The site is centred on a Grade II listed timber framed barn built in 1537. The sympathetically restored buildings sit well away from the road in an naturally sloping site with sweeping views to the South across a traditionally farmed landscape.

Housed in the offices are the team now responsible for bringing Wingfield Barns back to life. Now owned by Mid Suffolk District Council, Geoff Doggett is running the site and developing the business plan. This involves building relationships with the local communities, artists, schools and all those interested in the future of this important Suffolk venue. Geoff is working under a contract prior to a new charity or community interest company forming in 2009 to formally take on the leasehold of the buildings and run the artistic programming and venue hirings.
