SC&T has a prominent role at Tartan Day this Saturday as we continue the launch of our September evening classes programme. Our activities will be based in a marquee outside Provost Skene's House where we will be having taster sessions between 12.30pm and 3.30pm. Some SC&T instruments will be available to try and we can answer any questions you have.
Beyond the marquee, there are various performance venues where SC&T will be providing the entertainment, the latest schedule can be found here. The classes programme can be picked up for the marquee. If you are out and about, please wear your SC&T t-shirts, as we want to use Saturday to put SC&T on the map, a programme in the pocket and new enrolments in the diary.
