It's more than just classes

Every year we include evening activities such as...

  • Folk Club night - play, sing, dance, juggle... we want to know what talents you have!
  • One Night Stand Competition - Prepare something to play in a small group in just a few hours!
  • DIY Ceilidh - Each group prepares a set to dance to and calls it for everyone else!
  • Open, informal sessions in the bar every night, as late as you like!
  • Tutor's concert - a chance to hear all the tutors - for free!
  • And other games, musical and not so musical!

OK, I'm interested, How much does it cost?
