International Concertina Association Agm 2016

[Roger Gawley]

Our annual general meeting will be held on April 16th at the Ouseburn Farm, Byker, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 2PA. Meeting starts at 2pm. All members are entitled to attend without notice but please let us know you are coming so we can set enough chairs.

 

Starting 10:30, Alistair Anderson, international star of the concertina and President of the ICA will give a workshop on Northumbrian tunes. This is free to members, £2.50 to non-members (whatever you may have read in Concertina World).

 

From 7:30pm, Alistair will lead a concert featuring Star and Shadow ladies rapper team with Alex Wade. Price now reduced to £5 for members, £4 for non-members. Tickets on the door but please tell us that you are coming.

to say that you will be there. It is going to be good.

Whoops! Forgot to say that the concert is in St Silas Church, Newcastle, NE6 1PG just up the hill from Ouseburn Farm and just behind KFC.

 

If the meeting finishes early, it is quiet likely that we will spend some time in the Cumberland Arms on our way from farm to church. It is about half way and has some attraction.
