@AnLanntair
One of the things we try hard to do as often as we can is find out directly from our audiences what they would like to see here in our programme at An Lanntair. This arts centre is for everyone in the community, and for visitors too, and so it feels important, crucial in fact, that everyone can have their say. Last year we had lots of feedback asking us to bring more comedy to the stage. Well, you asked for it, and together with our partners at Beyond Presents, we really have tried our best to deliver... Not only have we already welcomed Simon Evans, Ivo Graham, Phill Jupitus, Craig Hill aaaaand Jack Dee to An Lanntair's stage this spring, coming up in autumn we still have James Acaster, Alan Carr and the incredible Susie McCabe to come! Susie McCabe performed the Fringe this year to fabulous reviews - she is certainly one act not to be missed! As well as all the laughs, the visual arts programme is looking extremely exciting this season.
I can't wait to welcome back the wonderful Arpita Shah to An Lanntair with her first Main Gallery show with us through our Purvai programme of South Asian arts. Her photographic series, Nalini, focuses on Arpita’s mother, grandmother, and herself, exploring ancestral intimacies and how their histories, memories, and bodies are intertwined. It's going to be stunning exhibition. And Grinneas is back! Yes, it's time for the Islands Open Exhibition at An Lanntair and this year it comes with a fantastic new addition - Grinneas na h-Òrigridh - a chance for young people under 18 to submit work for a specially curated exhibition of young artists throughout the building. The team and I love Grinneas season and getting to see all the talent that our islands have to offer. Make sure to get your entries in on time - deadline 16th November!

FÁILTE
eo a dh’iarr sibh!
Is e aon de na nithean a bhios sinn a’ feuchainn ar dìcheall a dhèanamh cho tric ’s as urrainn dhuinn, a bhith a’ faighinn a-mach bho dhaoine na nithean a bu chaomh leotha fhaicinn sa phrògram againn ann an seo anns An Lanntair. Tha an t-ionad-ealain seo dhan h-uile duine sa choimhearsnachd, agus airson an luchd-turais cuideachd, agus mar sin tha e cudromach, eadhoin deatamach, gum bi cothrom aig a h-uile neach am beachd a chur a-steach.
Tha mi air bhioran gus fàilte air ais chun An Lanntair a chur air Arpita Shah leis a’ chiad taisbeanadh còmhla rinn sa Phrìomh Ghaileiridh tron phrògram Purvai againn de ealain Àisia a Deas. Tha an t-sreath dhealbhan aice, Nalini, a’ cuimseachadh air a màthair, a seanmhair agus oirre fhèin, a’ sgrùdadh an eachdraidh teaghlaich is an ceanglaichean. Is e taisbeanadh air leth a bhios ann. Agus tha Grinneas air ais! Tha an t-àm ann airson Taisbeanadh Fosgailte nan Eilean san Lanntair agus am bliadhna tha leudachadh ùr, inntinneach air - Grinneas na h-Òigridh – cothrom do dhaoine òga fo 18 an cuid obrach a thaisbeanadh air feadh an togalaich. Tha an sgioba agus mi fhèin uabhasach dèidheil air seusan Grinneas is a’ faighinn cothrom an tàlant a tha air feadh nan eilean fhaicinn. Faighibh ur dealbhan a-steach ann an àm – ro 16mh Samhain!
www.lanntair.com 3
An-uiridh fhuair sinn tòrr fiosrachadh air ais bho dhaoine gum bu chòir dhuinn tuilleadh comadaidh a thaisbeanadh air an stèidse. Uill, seo a dh’iarr sibh, agus tha sinn air feuchainn ris nas urrainn dhuinn a dhèanamh airson a thoirt thugaibh…. Chan e a-mhàin gun tug sinn thugaibh Simon Evans, Ivo Graham, Phill Jupitus, Craig Hill is Jack Dee air stèidse An Lanntair as t-earrach, ach as t-fhoghar bidh James Acaster, Alan Carr is Susie McCabe, a tha iongantach, air an stèidse cuideachd! Bha Susie McCabe aig an Iomall am bliadhna agus fhuair i lèirmheasan a bha air leth – dèanaibh cinnteach gum bi sibh ann!
Cho math ris na nithean èibhinn, tha prògram nan ealain lèirsinneach a’ coimhead air leth inntinneach air an t-seusan seo.

ALL THAT I DO: TOM HICKMAN Tha am pròiseact seo mar ùmhlachd is mar theisteanas do neach-ealain is neachcruinneachaidh iongantach, agus aig teis-mheadhan an taisbeanaidh seo tha sreath de dh’obair-ghrèis mhìorbhaileach le seallaidhean às a’ Bhìoball, eadar Gàrradh Eden is Àirc Noah gu Breith Ìosa. Bidh stuthan bhon chruinneachadh farsaing aig Tom air a thaisbeanadh cuideachd – eadar àirneis, ealain agus stuthan air an cruthachadh bho shligean a thàinig bho cho fada air falbh ri Ceann Iar-dheas Astràilia agus Iar-thuath Alba.

LUKE JACKSON/THE TUMBLING SOULS
STELLAR QUINE: HOPE & JOY
Chaidh ainmeachadh airson Duaisean Folc BBC Radio 2 san roinn Horizon Award for Best Emerging Talent is ann an roinn The Young Folk; bhuannaich e ‘Neach-ealain Fireann na Bliadhna’ aig Fatea ann an 2014; chaidh an clàr beò aige ‘Solo:Duo:Trio’ a thaghadh mar Chlàr na Bliadhna 2018 le Laurel Canyon; bidh e tric a’ dol air chuairt air feadh na Roinn Eòrpa, US is Canada agus tha e air taic a thoirt do Fairport Convention, Seth Lakeman, Karine Polwart is feadhainn eile.
Tha saothair Hope air leth annasach. Ach chan eil càil a tha i a’ dèanamh na dhuilgheadas do Joy, tè-glanaidh an ospadail a tha ga cuideachadh is na caraid dhi.
Agus tha an seinneadair/sgrìobhadair Luke Jackson a’ tilleadh chun An Lanntair air an Fhoghair seo; còmhla ris air an oidhche bidh an sàr chòmhlan ionadail The Tumbling Souls, leis an stoidhle aca fhèin de dh'òrain Cajun, dùthchail is folc a’ cur gu math ri stoidhle Luke. £10
Tha Hope and Joy na dhealbh-chluich èibhinn a tha a’ sgrùdadh gaol agus call agus tha e air a thoirt chun An Lanntair leis a’ Chompanaidh Tèatar Stellar Quines – tha na briathran sin a’ tighinn bho Albais ‘stellar’ a’ ciallachadh ‘rionnagach’ agus ‘quines’ a’ ciallachadh boireannaich.
Abair gu bheil nithean iongantach a’ tachairt ann an seo! An uair a chaill Joy a h-obair chaidh i a dh’fhuireach còmhla ri Hope is Magnus agus chaidh an ceòl air feadh na fìdhle!
STELLAR QUINE: HOPE & JOY THU 24 OCT 8 PM
LUKE JACKSON/THE TUMBLING SOULS
And singer/songwriter Luke Jackson returns to An Lanntair this Autumn; joined on the night by local super group The Tumbling Souls, with their unique brand of Cajun, Country and Folk infused songs complementing the Folk, Roots and Americana sounds of Luke perfectly. £10
When Joy is sacked for letting human-bird hybrids escape out the window, Joy moves in with Hope and her swan-boy son Magnus. Their lives collide in chaos, Hope is learning to love, Magnus is learning to fly, and Joy is in an unhelpful relationship with a goldfish. Hope and Joy is a seriously funny play that explores love and loss in a changing environment, brought to An Lanntair by the multi-award winning, producing and touring theatre company Stellar Quines Theatre Company - from the old Scots words ‘stellar’ meaning ‘starry’ and ‘quines’ meaning women.
www.lanntair.com 15
He's been nominated for the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards in both the Horizon Award for Best Emerging Talent and The Young Folk categories; won the Fatea’s ‘Male Artist of the Year’ in 2014; his live album ‘Solo:Duo:Trio’ was voted 2018 Album of the Year by Laurel Canyon; he regularly tours across Europe, the US, and Canada, and has supported such luminaries as Fairport Convention, Seth Lakeman, Karine Polwart, and more.
Hope’s labour is unusual and uneggspected. But nothing fazes Joy, the hospital cleaner who supports and befriends her.

@AnLanntair
We have new textiles from Alice Mac Prints and jewellery from Islewear, both taking inspiration from nature and the Hebridean landscape. Local maker Jonathan Rowe uses tree burrs to create unique candle holders and home accessories; while Reclaim Hebrides give reclaimed wood and metal a second life - an old whisky barrel finds a new purpose when the lid becomes a statement wall clock and the staves become beautiful tealight holders. And the distinct designs of Ayala Bar return to our jewellery cabinet with combinations of colours and materials that are unmistakable and always draw compliments.
