Galoshans was a piece of folk theatre performed in many parts of Scotland. The men of the town would dress up and chap on the doors of the houses to perform their story of death and resurrection. They would be rewarded with sweets and fruits or perhaps money and a wee dram.
Sound familar? The tradition is alive and well after all this time, only now it's usually called 'guising' or 'trick or treating'. In Inverclyde though, the phrase 'Going Galoshans' has survived.

Take part in this years Galoshans Arts Festival in Greenock with a host of work by Steer Projects and many more dotted around the town. 28th - 30th October. See you there!

Brilliant evening at the Creative Scotland Annual Festival Reception last night. Great to hear some excellent speeches on the importance of the arts in our troubling political climate from Cabinet Secretary Fiona Hyslop, playwright David Greig and Creative Scotland CEO Janet Archer . ' Culture in Scotland is a life force .. . . . . .' Creativity encourages us to dream and inspires hope'. The canapes were pretty good too! Not to mention a mind blowing performance by Yorkston Thorne Khan.

We're very much looking forward to hosting the Inverclyde Creative Net next week!
Creatives of all kinds are welcome, so please come along if the event appeals to you.

We are excited to announce that Steer Projects will be hosting the second Creative Net on the 21st July, 7-9pm at the Beacon Arts Centre.

The event will include a presentation from the group about their recent trip to Dumfries and The Stove Network. It is free to attend, and everyone is welcome.

This is an informal creative gathering for anyone in the region who works in or is interested in the arts in Inverclyde. From painting to performance, music to mosaic. Come along and find out more about the sometimes ‘hidden’ creativity of the region.

See you there.
