Join the Museum for three days of festivities at Anstruther Harbour.

Visit our Model Boat Club displays in the Education Centre (enter above the Sun Tavern), and climb aboard our historic Herring Drifter ‘Reaper’ in the Harbour.

Inside the Museum, we’ll have a sea shanty workshop and a programme of music and dance performances on Saturday and Sunday.

Outside, across the weekend, there will be food, drink, craft and charity stalls lining the folly, yachts mustering in the water, children’s entertainers and live bands including headliners the Coal Town Daisies, plus the Scottish premier of the film “Wind Tide and Oar” rounding off the festival at the Dreel Halls.

There is also a competition to enter!

The Grimwood Book Series: Fox cub siblings, Ted and Nancy escape urban life and find themselves in Grimwood, the forest where anything can happen. Along with their new friends, Willow the Rabbit, Sharon the Party Crow, Titus the Stag, and more squirrels than they know what to do with, they face the toughest challenges, embark on the maddest adventures, learn the biggest life lessons and have the most fun two fox cubs can have.

A powerful photo-led exhibition featuring 12 individuals from across Scotland, “Pride in the Seas” depicts the challenges, pride and responsibility felt by those working in Scotland’s fishing industry.
