BRIGG LIVE ARTS EVENT WILL BE IN REMEMBRANCE OF ROBERTA FULFORD


A town centre event will be in remembrance of Roberta Fulford, the founder of Brigg Live Arts, who died last year.
Brigg Live Arts will be presenting Brassy Sharman's Band and the Folklinks Band in the Cafe Courtyard, Brigg Market Place, on Friday, May 13 (doors open 7pm for 7.30pm start).
Tickets, costing £12, are now available from the venue located on the ground floor of the Angel building, and can also be obtained from Grandad's Shed, on Wrawby Street.
The organisers of this event say the ticket price includes a delicious Spanish supper to be served during the interval.
For further details and ticket reservations call 07706 087340.
Roberta carried out a great deal of organisational work for Brigg Live Arts events and was active in the folk music scene.
She kindly supplied our blog with many previews and reports relating to Brigg Live Arts over the years, including its enjoyable town centre festivals.
A celebration of her life was held at Scunthorpe's Woodlands Crematorium on December 3, 2021.
Brigg Town Council observed a period of silence in her memory during its November meeting.

The Brigg Geology Group will be holding its next meeting on Thursday (April 28) at Brigg & District Servicemen's Club, from 7.30pm. Admission is free to listen to a talk about The Blow Wells of Lincolnshire by Dr Mike Oates.
