Bank Street Gallery - Fairlie House Youth Art Group
Bank Street Gallery was established in 2005 in Kirriemuir, Angus, Scotland. Gallery owner, Susie Clark, created the gallery as the result of a vision for a centre of excellence based in the East of Scotland, following her experience in exhibiting prisoners' art in her law offices. Over the past decade or so the gallery has exhibited many artists - local, national and international - almost all as one man shows. For the Feel Good Festival the Gallery will be displaying art from our local youth art group.

Bruce Walker, Stone Sculptor and Grass Engraver, 3 Cumberland Close. Bruce is offering a chance to try your hand at engraving on glass. Also if you want he will help you to create a special glass for £20.
Bruce is renowned for his generosity to and support for our local community. For the Feel Good festival he has donated a beautiful tankard to our raffle.
About Bruce: In 1975 Bruce set up own business hand-engraving quality glassware and stone carving, he then established a studio at the old school at Kirkbuddo in Angus which was in operation from 1975-1997. In 1997 he relocated to Kirriemuir and established a new studio at the craft units in Cumberland Close. Bruce Walker has been carving stone since 1963. Training as a carver of granite in Aberdeen has enabled him to carve any stone. He has worked not only in granite but also sandstone, marble, limestone and soapstone. He worked with Denfind Quarry in Angus and carved several sculptures with their stone. He has also worked on Sheirglas – a hard Scottish limestone from Pitlochry. In 2012 Bruce established a new sculpture workshop at the Hillhead Industrial Estate in Kirriemuir. The premises are able to accommodate large sculptures of up to 30 tons or more. Around this time Bruce began to use granite from Craigenlow Quarry at Dunecht, Aberdeenshire. He also sources granite from nearby Kemay Quarry.In 2012 Bruce carved the impressive Scott Wilson Memorial sculpture at Glen Prosen in Angus. It is carved in Craigenlow granite and completed in the centennial year of Captain Scott and Doctor Wilson reaching the South Pole and their subsequent deaths. It depicts the relationship between the two men and their association with Glen Prosen. More of Bruce’s larger stone sculptures include public sculptures in Angus, Fife and Perthshire, as well as several which remain in private collections. His smaller sculptures are mainly in private collections and include fountains, sun dials, coats of arms, statues and memorials . His preferred style is abstract, but has done a lot of figurative carving, and any carving can be created according to the customer’s requirements.
Bruce has also been engraving glass for 45 years and has pieces in private collections across most of Britain as well as many countries around The World. He specialises in engraving wild life and buildings, but any design can be created to order. http://www.brucewalkersculptor.co.uk/contact/

The Kirriemuir Knit and Natter group meets most weeks at 2-4 pm on Thursdays. The Knit and Natter group started about 7 years ago and are still going strong. We have recently raised over £600 for good causes with our Christmas charity sale. We also go on occasional outings, and usually try to have lunch together at the end of the year. In the summer, we try to go to see some wool related crafts or to farms that produce fleece for spinning. We have all learned to not try to do any really complicated patterns at the knitting group as there are too many distractions going on, But most of all we meet to knit, natter, share our successes and failures, both on and off the pins, and just have fun generally.
