STUDENT SOCIETY<br />
<strong>Oxford</strong>’s Arcadian Singers are a student-run<br />
classical chamber choir founded in 1976, singing termly<br />
concerts in <strong>Oxford</strong> and engaged in musical ventures both in<br />
and outside of the city. In recent years we have toured yearly,<br />
recorded two successful CDs and are planning a third next<br />
summer.<br />
We focus on preparing music of a scale and standard that<br />
goes far beyond what an evensong can facilitate, and this<br />
term’s concert is set to feature Howells’ Requiem as well as a<br />
premiere specially composed work for the choir by Laurence<br />
Armstrong Hughes.<br />
On top of benefits to musicianship, being part of the choir and<br />
its committee offers fantastic opportunities to gain experience<br />
in arts management and marketing. We furthermore maintain<br />
close ties with a network of alumni employed in incredibly<br />
diverse careers, and greatly look forward to welcoming new<br />
members for this academic year.<br />

VOLUNTEERING STUDENT SOCIETY<br />
Thinking about a career in arts, heritage, education,<br />
or events? Want to develop your customer service<br />
or communication skills in an interesting and inspiring<br />
setting?<br />
If so, volunteering at the <strong>Oxford</strong> University Museums and<br />
Collections could be just for you...<br />
The Joint Museums Volunteer Service offers a variety of<br />
opportunities across seven collections: from astronomy to<br />
zoology, paintings, people, and plants… Most<br />
opportunities involve volunteering with the public, including<br />
families, tourists, and school groups; some involve helping<br />
behind-the-scenes.<br />
OU Photography Society is about learning to take better<br />
pictures. We aim to make photography an accessible hobby<br />
for all, you really don’t need fancy kit to take great photos,<br />
your pocket digital or grand-dad’s old film SLR are capable of<br />
great things! It’s not what you’ve got, it’s how you use it.<br />
