Wick Community Noticeboard

Now that summer officially is over, a nice wee activity if you're in the area.

Looking for something to do as the nights draw in again and we move towards the Autumn and Winter months? Join us on the last Wednesday of the month at Sinclair's Bay Creatives at Keiss Hall.

Sinclair's Bay Creatives is really informal sub-group of Sinclair's Bay Trust - it is simply a space for a group of people who enjoy being creative to get together on an evening once a month. There's usually a cuppa on the go too.

While this will be our 12th session, the group is open to all and is a friendly, welcoming space. There is always a good mixture of arts and crafts on the go and many come along on their own too.

Free to attend, bring your own materials but if you are new to creativity, pop along - there is always spare materials to use.
