Duilich, chan eil seo ri fhaighinn ach sa Bheurla an-dràsta.

Join us at the Scorrybreac Boathouse on Saturday 4 June for a collaborative sculpture workshop with Malcolm Mackenzie.

Adapting the European folk story Stone Soup” in which hungry strangers persuade local townsfolk to donate ingredients to make a pot of soup, Malcolm invites participants to bring a piece of wood (any shape or size, found or bought) or something decorative to help collectively make a boat sculpture.

There will be food, drink, sculpture making and storytelling. If you have one, bring a story about the sea with you too.

If you have any questions about the event or access requirements, please let us know via info@atlasarts.org.uk or call 01478 611.

Note: if you have a cordless drill and/​or work gloves bring those too, as we have a limited number available on the day.
