Racing trains, worm charming and promising artists!

Well we're halfway through the summer holidays here in West Wales and so far we've been blessed with good weather. Will it hold out for the rest of August? Fingers crossed.
So .... for any lucky holidaymakers who've opted for a traditional seaside holiday here in north-west Wales, you're in for a treat.
This weekend Tywyn host the popular annual Race the Train running event. (Saturday August 15th) You're too late to enter any of the four challenges this year but you can still go and cheer the runners on.

 
 
Also this weekend Aberdyfi will be hosting Aberdyfi Festival of Food and Drink on The Wharf , starting at 10.30am on Saturday the 15th of August.The town will be celebrating all things Food and Drink!  
 
                             
On the 22nd of August, why not come along to an afternoon of fun in the grounds of the former primary school in Llwyngwril. There's a free hog roast, entertainment from The Boggy Mountain Boys, a Worm Charming Competition, Fancy Dress Competition, free face painting and much more. While you're there, come and look at the plans for a community cooperative in the old school.
 
And ........ that evening why not come along to an evening of music with performances by local artists , in y Ganolfan starting at 7pm. Always a great evening's entertainment.
 
 
Another evening not to be missed is a live streaming of Othello at the Magic Lantern Tywyn, on the 26th August at 7pm.



Then ..........over the weekend of the 28th/29th/30th is the event of the year!!!!! Llwyngwril Art Group Exhibition!!! Come along and view our hard work over the last year.

There are some promising 'young' artists' work on show at this exhibition. Don't miss it!



And of course there is the ongoing Llwyngwril Yarn Bombing project throughout the village. New and exciting pieces are being added almost daily. Its well worth a trip to the village just to see this!
