About Me

It is with great sadness that I announce that An Tuireann has ceased to operate. Due to gross shortfalls in funding the art centre has had to go into liquidation. We thank all of you for your support over the 19 years our doors were open. This is a great loss for Portree, for Skye & Lochalsh and for the international arts scene.This sight will close in one weeks time (13th November) If you would like to send us any comments in this time please do.For friends of Nicola - please contact me through facebook or my hotmail email account. !
