In this respect the Shetland Arts Trust must be warmly thanked for their help in getting a variety of artistes to the isle - for example the very successful visit of the Opera on a Shoestring from Glasgow with
A bite at the Opera as well as the exciting Dance Workshop with the Scottish Youth Dance.
