This week...
Brewery Blues
Last month's Brewery Blues was a sell-out
- so book now!
Our headliners, The Three Corbies, feature US-born Heather Bristow, UK Song Writing finalist. Offering a medley of original writing and modern and traditional folk songs, Heather is accompanied by Colin Sillence and Dave Scott. With instruments including fiddle and guitar, bodhran, tenor banjo, mandolin and bass, electro-acoustic bass and bouzouki expect a fresh, category-defying performance featuring engaging vocals, strong harmonies and compelling accompaniment.
The lineup also includes Blues from The Muleskinners, fronted by
Juliette Prais, an acoustic set from Sian Chandler and Ray Hughes, and the welcome return of Jake Pembroke and his band, Chiron.
Tickets in advance £5 (£3 concessions/students)
£6.50 on the door (£4 concessions/students)
What's in the Gallery
Head over Heels - a fabulous top-to-toe exhibition showcasing the work of the most creative headwear and footwear designers in the UK today. During the exhibition, some of these artists/designers will be taking up residence in the gallery - your chance to see creativity in action and master craftspeople at work.
If you are fond of Fascinators, we have lots of exciting millinery and bootee-based workshops to keep you hat-happy and footy-fascinated. And our History of Art Lecture on 16 March looks at Portraits with Hats and Heels.
The exhibition runs from 6 March to 18 April - so make us your venue of choice for an Easter visit.
