Cultural exchange to enrich the artistic landscape on the island and the lives of the local community.</b></p>

<p>Join us for an evening of Murder Mystery in Dalry,</p> <p>The play will be performed by a local theatre comapany (Beith Theatre Company) and can be enjoyed by people of most age groups.</p> <p>These events are great fun and using only the&nbsp;little grey cells, the audience are invited to&nbsp;follow the clues and solve the mystery!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Arts workshops open to the public to tackle social isolation. The workshops would take place in partnership with KA&nbsp;Leisure and sessions would take place free of charge within a KA building. This will give adults&nbsp;in the community, the opportunity&nbsp;to come together in a group setting and learn new skills, meet new people, build confidence, and improve mental health and wellbeing whilst working with a North Ayrshire&nbsp;Artist,&nbsp;Lynn McNally.&nbsp;</p>

<p>LMC offers an informal setting for amateur musicians to meet on a regular basis and encourage one another to improve their skill level on their preferred musical instrument.</p>

<p>We&#39;re applying for funding to allow us to run various green, environmentally friendly,&nbsp;workshops across summer as part of our Ayrshire sculpture competition.</p>

<p>Chauvet Wash FX Hex LED light would help enhabnce the annual pantomime produced by Livingstone Players. The idea would be to purchase 2 and have them located near the sound station at the back of the hall so that additional effects can be added in addition to the lighting that the backstage crew control..&nbsp;</p> <p>This is a comminity based project and is made up of a variety of local people of different ages and backgrounds who come together to produce, choreograph and write an annual pantomime as well as support all the technical background required to put the show on.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Part of SeaSalt Streets&#39; remit is to create public awareness and engagement through a series of pop-up events. As part of previous public consultation, it has come to our notice that people know little or nothing of Betsy Miller.</p> <p>SeaSalt Streets intend to use the funds to hold two events in Saltcoats to raise the awareness of Betsy Miller, Britain&#39;s 1st Female Sea Captain.&nbsp;</p> <p>It is hoped that the success of the events would lead to more similarly themed promotions on a regular basis.</p>
