Congratulations to the hubCAP Committee on the brilliant fundraiser they presented at the WEE RED BAR. 3 great bands thrilled the audience but our personal highlight was of course Falaraki featuring our great friend, CAPalumni and former AIRetc… Lewis Bissett! A great night and lots of money raised for exciting new projects at the gallery.
