SUMMARY:The Life and Art of David Barrogill Keith - Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of the extraordinary artwork and experiences of David Barrogill Keith\, exploring the creativity\, intellect and resolve which exemplified his life. \nThe exhibition brings together artwork from the collection of Robert Maitland\, local knowledge and research by historian Alan McIvor and the Caithness Archive Team\, alongside original records held at Nucleus: The Nuclear and Caithness Archives. \nAffectionately known as ‘Barrogill Keith’ or ‘D.B. Keith’\, David Barrogill Keith was a well-known figure in Caithness and beyond\, with many of his original artworks still hanging in houses around the county today. However\, his life and work may not be as familiar to a modern audience and so this exhibition seeks to give a fuller account of both his experiences and his captivating paintings. \nVenue: North Coast Visitor Centre\, High St\, Thurso KW14 8AJ\nFrom the 6th to the 27th of June 2026*\, from 10am to 5pm. \n*Please note\, closed Sundays and Mondays. \n  \nFind out more here.

SUMMARY:Salt to Plate by Debasis Biswas
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we explore the heritage and conservation of salmon fisheries along the north coast of Scotland and beyond with local wildlife artist and documentary filmmaker Debasis Biswas. DB’s fascinating co-curated exhibition incorporates paintings\, sculptural pieces and a documentary film. \nThe story of the salmon fisheries is a human story of industry and resilience and DB has gathered a wealth of colourful and rich stories from those who worked these shores as part of what was once a thriving industry. DB’s engaging documentary incorporates these stories as he visits the buildings associated with the industry in the company of those who worked there. \nDB also explores the global story of the wild Atlantic salmon through art and science. The students at Farr High School led by High Life Highland Ranger Paul Castle explored the impact of micro plastics and marine litter on our environment during a litter pick. The students creative responses can be seen as part of the exhibition through sculptural pieces created by the waste gathered during their litter pick. \nSalt to Plate was developed as part of Strathnaver Museum’s 2024 Artist Residency Programme part funded by Museums Galleries Scotland\, The William Syson Foundation\, the Children’s and Young People’s Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund\, and which received £5\,755 from the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. \n20th June to 31st October\, Mon to Sat\, 10am to 5pm

SUMMARY:Blanket Bog Flowers at their Brilliant Best!
DESCRIPTION:Discover beautiful Blanket Bog Flowers with Graham Thompson\, A Far North Naturalist. \n\n\nDare to step where most will not\, and discover the botanical secrets of the peatland habitat on The Flows World Heritage Site. \n\n\n\n\nHave you ever wanted to wander out onto the vast expanse of blanket bog here in Sutherland\, but not plucked up the courage! If so\, it’s hardly surprising. It can be daunting having many metres of squidgy peat beneath your feet\, quivering like a jelly (the peat\, if not you personally…). \nWhy not join me this summer to experience it\, whilst admiring the splendid plants that are to be found there\, including: Scottish Eyebright (Euphrasia scottica)\, Pale Butterwort (Pinguicula lustanica)\, Bog Asphodel (Narthecium ossifragum)\, Sundews (Drosera rotundifolia and D. anglica)\, Marsh Lousewort (Pedicularis palustris)\, Cow-wheat (Melampyrum pratense)\, Lesser Butterfly Orchid (Platanthera bifolia)\, Bog Sedge (Carex limosa)\, Few-flowered Sedge (C. pauciflora)\, Dioecious Sedge (C. dioica)\, Deergrass (Tricophorum germanicum)\, Lesser Clubmoss (Selaginella selaginoides). Finding Bog Orchid (Hammarbya paludosa) is also a distinct possibility. Squeeze then sniff some Bog Myrtle! Will it repel midges? We might get the chance to find out! \nWe might find the awesome caterpillars of the Northern Eggar moth. One of the very impressive\, wetland-inhabiting hairy-eyed craneflies found here is Pedicia rivosa… \nLearn a bit about why bogs are so important in locking up carbon\, and what work is being done locally by the RSPB and other landowners to repair bogs that have been damaged by past agricultural and forestry practices. \nHear about the Arctic-alpine flora found in the area. Hear me tell tales of some fantastic insects that are closely associated with the local Red Deer\, and of my encounters with them… \nWe won’t go far off the beaten track. This is just a chance to sample the experience. Wear Wellington boots if you have them. Walking boots and gaiters will suffice. But be prepared to get a bit wet\, just in case! Walking poles with a broad base will be useful to give you traction. \nWe will meet at Forsinard\, in the RSPB car park that is opposite the railway station. We will then drive to the start point (a few minutes away). Car parking at the site is limited to 4 spaces\, with other options a short walk away (5 minutes) but car sharing will be possible to get us all to the start point. \nForsinard railway station is 20 minutes’ walk away from the location\, but anyone coming by train can join me in my car. This walk fits in perfectly between train arrival and departure\, both north- and southbound. \nFind out more and book via Eventbrite.
