ARTS + HERITAGE<br />

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 />

E-mail photographic.society@studentclubs.ox.ac.uk or go to<br />
