Pop into the Scottish Fisheries Museum and explore why working songs were an important part of life for Herring Lasses and fishing communities. Have a go at singing some songs and learn some Gaelic words while gutting our fabric fish! See how many you can gut in a minute.
The workshop is being led Meg Hyland who has researched the role of music in the lives of Scottish herring girls. This event is funded through Seachdain na Gàidhlig Small Grants Funding and is part of a wider series of events in Anstruther for World Gaelic Day 2024.
