A double whammy of success today for Trad Music Trust who run The Vault Arts Centre and Newton Stewart & Minnigaff Traditional Music & Dance Festival, both of which have been nominated for an Awarding Wigtownshire award. We're thrilled to see The Vault Arts Centre up for 'Contribution to Music'.
Awarding Wigtownshire 2023 Finalists!
It really is fantastic to be nominated, and everyone involved is chuffed to bits to be considered for this award as music is absolutely at the heart of everything that's tried to be achieved at The Vault Arts Centre.
Awarding Wigtownshire shines a light on the incredible work going on locally by individuals, businesses, community groups, charities and everyone in between who make Wigtownshire amazing. Winners will be revealed at an in-person ceremony on Saturday 10th June 2023 at North West Castle Hotel, Stranraer, so we'll have everything crossed for a win this year. Wish us luck!
