Following the demise of the Glaisnock Trust and the uncertain future
of Glaisnock House, the traditional arts workshop weeks, known as
'Summer Schools @ Glaisnock', have now moved to West Park, Dundee,
part of the University of Dundee campus.
The Summer Schools are now known as 'Living Tradition Summer Schools'.

Welcome

2009 will be the third year of our six week long summer schools series. 'Living Tradition Summer Schools' is a modern style of event using the highest quality of traditional arts teaching combined with public performance to provide opportunities for participation and learning at all levels. The workshops will offer a quality learning experience and bring international masters of the folk arts to Scotland. The ‘arts workshops’ will be strongly based on the traditional arts – music, song, dance and storytelling – but will also include other art and craft activities, tutors and students from relevant local projects. We hope that we can tempt you to join us!

This website should help answer many of your questions but if you can't find what you want, give us a call on 01563 551408.

We encourage you to join our mailing list and we will keep you in touch with developments.
