We have a range of workshops taking place in the upstairs rooms at  Birnam Arts over the course of the festival, led by the various performers, they are a perfect opportunity to brush up your skills under the tutelage of hugely talented artists....

The workshops are aimed at novice and intermediate players, not absolute beginners (although a lot can be learned by observing a tutor at work!)  You will need to have your instrument with you, and the focus will be on technique and sound as opposed to just learning new tunes.

*************************************************************************************************

Places on the workshops can be booked either in person at Birnam Arts or by calling 01350 727 674 during the week between 9am - 5pm. There is a maximum of 15 people per workshop.
