Largs Music Club provides a safe, inclusive, and welcoming space where aspiring musicians of all ages and abilities can come together to learn, practice, and support one another in developing their musical skills.

We believe music should be accessible to everyone, regardless of background or financial circumstances, and our club helps make this possible.

Art in Mind now has two weekly groups in different venues, for people with mental ill health . We want to learn about printing, and have a printer and a specialist printmaker to teach us all.

We also need some storage to rationalise our art materials, and make them more accessible and easy to use.
