The ninth annual Christian Aid Art and Scottish Book Sale will take place next weekend from 24 to 26 October 2019 at St Andrew’s and St George’s West Church on George Street.
This year they have received contributions from Alexander McCall Smith which will be on sale during the weekend. One is an illustration by Iain MacIntosh from The No 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency and the other is a first and limited edition of the book signed by both Alexander and Iain.
The sale is open from 10.00am to 3.00pm each day.
Proceeds from sale will go to this year’s Christian Aid Harvest Appeal which supports the EcoVeg project.
The EcoVeg project helps Kasthuri and her women’s farming collective with agricultural and business skills, and gets them a fair price for their crop.
The church is usually open seven days a week with their Undercroft Café serving up light lunches and coffee between 10.00am and 2.00pm.
