It’s TRUE! We will see our favorite instructors this coming January, as the Celtic Arts Foundation, based in Mt. Vernon, WA has taken up the charge!
The workshop will be held in a fine location, the Seabeck Conference Center, which has been home base for their February “Winter School” workshop for years. Also a bonus, the Celtic Arts Foundation’s executive director is Cayley Schmid is no stranger to our pre-covid workshops. So, it’s guaranteed to be as good as always, just further south.
Here’s the link to all the information. Look for the REGISTER button towards the top of the page!
Kudos to the Celtic Arts Foundation, Cayley Schmid, and of course, to Alasdair Fraser and Natalie Haas!
Here’s a peak a some of the folks on hand for the May session at Third Place Books. We had 14 musicians, including a cellist and a piper. A great time was had by all, with lots of wonderful tunes.
Thanks to our good friend Doug Plummer for the shot below. Speaking of Doug Plummer, he’ll host our June session on June 9th! We usually don’t have sessions in June, so this is a special opportunity.
DETAILS on June 9th session: 2- 4:30 pm, at 6203 28th Ave NE, Seattle, WA 98115
Bring a snack to share, BYOB etc.! See you there soon.
Come on down to the Commons at Third Place Books, Sunday, May 19th. That’s one week later than usual, as we make time for Mother’s Day on our usual day for gatherings and tunes.
The address is 17171 Bothell Way, #A101, Lake Forest Park, Bothell.
We’ll start at 12:30, but coming early is a great option because of the great food choices offered by the food court vendors in the Commons. We will play until 2:30.
As the photo above states, we will not play tunes on the stage, but we’ll be close to the stage on the main floor.
All string instruments welcome, as well as other Celtic instruments. Scottish small pipes are encouraged as well, but the management has asked that their louder, bigger cousins, such as border pipes/Highland bagpipes stay home. Thank you for understanding.
Any questions, write to m.thumma@mac.com!
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
April 14th. 2 – 4:30 pm, in the Thorndike Room at the incredible Anderson School/ Mc Menamin’s. 18607 Bothell Way NE, Bothell, WA 98011.

Be sure to bring layers of clothes, and maybe even an extra blanket (always a good idea just for traveling in the car this time of year.) May the force be with you as you venture forth! One more update on Thursday.
SHhhhh! Don’t tell anyone yet, but, there’s some good news as of this evening! Let’s hope it continues in this direction! It will be cold, for sure! 😉
You’ve come to the right place! Any information here regarding weather, and possible impact on the workshop will be right here. We’ll start with this one. These will always be for Stanwood, so you can figure out what to bring, etc. Be prepared, either way!
