Hi everyone,

Just to keep you up to date:-


We have arranged 6 "Make Music Live" Concerts at Ossy Mills, Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire, to be held during the season in the marquee (60ft x 30ft approx) in the gardens at Oswaldtwistle Mills. These will take the form of a day of Folk for ARC (Arthritis Research Campaign) under the "Penny Black & Friends" banner.

The six main events will be held on Sundays between 11am and 4pm - 5 hours of music and fun supplemented with ad hoc performances on weekdays (prior to the main events) to advertise them and add to the ARC collection.
