Why not end your week with the sublime voices of the Guernsey Welsh Voice Choir - Join the Guernsey Welsh Voice choir as part of the Candie Concerts Series on the 25 June from 3pm - 4pm.
The Guernsey Welsh Voice Choir are a group which perform many classic and Welsh pieces, as well as some more modern pieces arranged for choral renditions, such as the ever popular Bridge Over Troubled Water! Coming to you fresh from their performance earlier this year at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, the dulcet tones of “The Boys” make for an amazing afternoon of entertainment. The full line of Candie Concerts can be viewed below.
Join the St Peter Port Sketch Club for urban sketching! This week, the group will meet at Trinity Square at 17:45 on the 29 June to sketch around the iconic triangle.
Each week, sketchers meet at a different location to draw for an hour, followed by a drink and a chat. No prior drawing skills are necessary - all you need is a sketchbook and a pen or pencil. The group includes people of all different age groups and backgrounds.
This year, sketches from the club will be exhibited in the George Crossan Gallery.
The film will be taking place on the 15 September at The Princess Royal Centre for Performing Arts Theatre.
After watching the short film, you'll have the opportunity to ask the filmmakers questions at the post-screening audience Q&A. César Award nominee Marc F DURET, Oscar nominee Jonathan Tammuz, and composer Omar El-Deeb, who previously worked on The Mandalorian as score sound-designer, will take your questions virtually! Other members of the cast and crew will be present in-person.
