Join us for an afternoon celebrating the creative life of Eric White. This exhibition will display his unique hand-carved walking sticks featuring detailed Celtic and Pictish designs.
Eric was passionate about all things Scottish, particularly the Doric language and culture of the North East. After his retirement, when he wasn't walking in the hills, you would find him whittling his sticks and composing Doric verse while he worked in his garden.
Eric shared his work with friends and family and his songs are often sung round the Aberdeenshire folk music scene, and recently the Forres and Findhorn music scene.
2pm - 3pm: Exhibition, bubbly🥂, live traditional Scottish music🎻.
3pm - 3:30pm: recital of Eric's poetry and songs by close family.
4pm close.
