News from Strathpeffer Community Centre

Art Fair: We will be holding an Art Fair on the Sat 14th and Sun 15th of May. Many pieces will be available to purchase and we will be selling refreshments and home made cakes. We will be having a preview evening on the Friday to which artists can invite two guests. If you are interested in displaying a painting, photograph, ceramics etc, book now. We are also looking for volunteers to help organise the Art Fair, and to make and/or sell refreshments during the event, please contact the community centre for further details.

Food and Craft Market: The market is held every 3rd Saturday of the month from 9.30 am until 12.30 pm with a cafe area open for refreshments. Come along and get your fresh bread, local fruit and vegetables and delicious cakes. In addition you can buy unique crafts, jewellery,  plants, photos/cards, books and body products.


Along with the markets we continue to have the Kids Saturday Matinee. Films run from 10.30 am – 12 noon. Entry is £2 by raffle ticket with one lucky child winning a prize!  Juice, popcorn, crisps and sweets are available to purchase. Children under 5 need to be accompanied by an adult.

Easter Activities: We have a number of activities planned over the course of the holidays including a Creche, Youth Hub, Incredible Edible,  Girls Pamper Evening, Multi-sports and a Kids Matinee. Booking is essential.

New Adult Classes: Digital Photography - Just finalising details for the popular Digital Photography course to start on a Weds or Thursday evening after Easter. If you are interested in attending, send us an email and we will send out the booking form once we have things confirmed.

Art Classes: We are starting an Art Club on Weds 27th April from 7.00pm to 9.00pm. This will be an informal drop-in session for budding artists, it is not tutor lead but the group can invite speakers and tutors depending on areas of interest. Just bring your own Art materials and spend time with like-minded people. £2 per session.

Are you interested in the outdoors? Would you like to know how to map read and safely navigate a mountain trek? Running in June when the weather is warm and bright, you will receive a mixture of in-door classroom information and outdoor practice in the surrounding hills. Contact us to register your interest.

Would you like to join the Community Centre Helping Hands? You may have noticed how busy we are at the Centre if you've popped in recently.  As a consequence we now find ourselves really needing a little extra help. Could you spare an hour or so now and again?

We need help serving teas or coffees, help laying out some tables (usually this takes 15 mins at the beginning of the day around the school drop off time). Or maybe your skills lay with DIY, such as changing a washer, putting up a shelf or painting the odd wall. It all adds up to make a huge difference and keep our Community Centre looking and working in a way we can be proud of.
Nadine Paterson is co-ordinating and she promises not to call on you too often!
