Move on over New York, judging by this week's arts fix, Guernsey's arts and culture offering is right up there with the city that never sleeps!
With screenings from The Royal Ballet, Open Mic Nights, an exhibition from local Legend Peter Le Vasseur, and a top Abba tribute band, there really is an artistic genre for everyone to enjoy this week!
Kickstart your Monday with music - who said that Mondays have to be boring? Join local musician and 'Nightmare' Nick Coleman for Monday’s weekly open mic at the De La Rue.
From Solo Performers to full band capability, this is the place to be, with original music encouraged. Open Mic takes place every Monday from 8PM until late - Why not make a night of it and arrive early for the De La Rue’s legendary pub grub ahead of the fun? You’ll be in the best company!
