WORKSHOP PERFORMANCE [1pm - 5pm]: The Gathering
Maggie has been hosting 'The Gathering' events since the 1980's all over the UK. This is the first in Scotland. She describes it as ‘a space, place and time where we can build up confidence in our creativity; where we can sit in silence, sing, play an instrument, draw, dance, gesture; be poetic or prophetic; we could talk in tongues, talk to each other, talk to ourselves, talk to voices. We can listen, make sounds, melodies and noise; soft and loud; leave space; fill it up; explore rhythm and time, chaos and rhyme, lullabies and laments; shyly and boldly.’
The Gathering is open to all singers, musicians, dancers, artists, poets, film-makers and those who enjoy creative explorations of any kind. Sign up to take part, or to watch. Come and go as you please.
