Equipment Hire
DAS holds a wide range of audio-visual equipment that is accessible to all artists, community groups and the general public. Much of the equipment is too expensive for individual artists or groups to buy and maintain so DAS takes responsibility for acquiring when possible, the most professional equipment available for shared use.
Membership is required to hire our equipment. Please contact us for availability and to book.
