Cultural Summer Events

We aim to put on a varied programme of events at the Centre. This is part of our remit to stimulate community confidence, providing opportunities to combat social exclusion and assist those who may be disadvantaged by circumstance. 

During the summer months we run a special eight week programme of walks and events designed to be of interest both to visitors and locals. These are supported by Comhairle nan Eilean Siar. These include nature walks, music classes and traditional skills, such as peat-cutting or waulking the tweed.

In addition to the above, there are also one-off meetings, classes and talks throughout the year, the subjects of which might include the history, natural history or geography of the islands. These evenings will be presented by local experts on their subject.

All courses and programmes of events are publicised in special leaflets which we make available at appropriate times of the year. Forthcoming programmes and forward notice of talks and meetings will be published on this website and in the local press.

We welcome suggestions for any new events and classes and welcome new tutors at all times.
