Taigh Chearsabhagh
Taigh Chearsabhagh is an arts centre and museum in Lochmaddy on the island of North Uist, Scotland.[1][2]
Taigh Chearsabhagh was built in 1741 and originally used as an inn; it has since served as a post office, house and workshop before being developed as an arts centre since 1993.[3] It is the base for the art school of Lews Castle College, part of the University of the Highlands and Islands, where students can study for NC Art and Design or a BA (Hons) in Fine Art, or take short courses.[4]
In 2022 it was a venue for Simon Armitage's Poet Laureate's Library Tour.[5]
