About

The now legendary Towner and Melting Vinyl club nights return with a folk feel, inspired by our autumn exhibition Collective Observations: Folklore and Photography from Benjamin Stone to Flickr. With sea songs and shanties from Hastings Shantymen and Rattlebag, a sneak preview of a new performance art show from The Baron, wandering minstrels Will and Ed, fiddle player Jo Burke, up and coming folk band Early Ghost and a folk DJ taking us into the small hours! Sing along with Early Ghost (who have previously played with Beirut) on specially arranged folk songs featuring Lewes Youth Concert Band (projected). Feed a Hoodening Horse, have your face painted, make a headdress, divine your future loved one, browse the exhibition while Handbell Ringers perform live, watch folk films, have your portrait taken for an online Flickr exhibition, sample local ciders and ales and generally have a good old knees up!
