What's On

Looking for a creative hangout? Join us at Pointers Youth Centre for the new Art Cafe for age 14 – 18 year olds. Each month there will be a group participatory art project to dive into. This is your space to meet friends, express yourself, and make something amazing together.  Hot drinks and toast provided. 

Experiment with making handmade papers from scrap paper and natural fibres in this Creative Connections workshop.

This session is for children age 2 – 5 and their parent or carer to be creative together. 

Baby Disco is a high-energy, family-friendly dance party where babies, toddlers, mums, and dads can come together to move, play, and enjoy something truly unique. We take classical music and transform it with fun, upbeat dance rhythms – creating the perfect soundtrack for little ones (and grown-ups!) to bop along to.

Join this supportive workshop to mark Healing Arts Scotland week. Artist Danielle Macleod will share her research into plant remedies historically used in the Outer Hebrides, and enable participants to experiment with cyanotype printing and botanical toning.

An Lanntair will run a week long creative course for young people to devise and perform a unique piece of theatre. Drama practitioners will lead workshops in performance skills, devising a new story, rehearsing the created piece and preparing the cast to perform to an audience.

Creative Summer art studio sessions for young people age 12 – 16 led by artist Kirsten Mcilroy.  Each day will start with observational drawing which you will develop into expressive painting, printmaking and ceramic artworks. 

YDance, in partnership with An Lanntair, will be delivering an Award in Dance Leadership Course accredited by Leadership Skills Foundations. The Dance Leadership Award helps young people develop leadership skills through dance, building confidence and preparing them to lead activities in their community.  

This fun and practical 3hr course will give teachers and youth workers the confidence, skills and knowledge to deliver dance sessions that develop creativity and basic movement skills with their young people.

Join us for a fun, creative week of dance led by an experienced YDance tutor – Beth Gildea. Learn a variety of styles including Jazz, Street, Contemporary, creative and more and finish the week with a sharing on the final day!
