The biggest decision is, which ones will you choose?!
Catstrand offers two evening events this weekend, to tempt you their way! 

Shooglenifty
Friday 24th May       7.30pm
£12/10
Dalry School

Shooglenifty is one of Scotland’s most unique musical exports. This six-man band is credited being the originators of “acid-croft,” a fiery and infectious blend of Celtic traditional music and dance grooves that band members describe as “hypno-folkadelic ambient trad.” While their sound is difficult to put into words, audiences from around the world have fallen under their musical spell.

Come along and let them put a spring in your step.
Under 14s must be accompanied by an adult.

Wine, Cheese and Art Conversation

An evening of wine and cheese in the company of prominent local artists and practitioners.

How the landscape and culture of Dumfries and Galloway affects and inspires artists.
