Helping to support Wooler Arts

Supporting Wooler Arts Making a donation Running a voluntary arts organisation is financially very challenging. Currently we receive no public funding, but have to rely on trusts, small grant applications, individual donations and box office income. Being a Registered Charity brings benefits such as Gift Aid, but it is the generosity of individuals that has been so helpful over the past five years, particularly with regard to the Summer Concerts, our most expensive activity. As we look to the future, we hope that support will be forthcoming in a number of different ways. If you would like to make an individual donation, you can do this by cheque made payable to Wooler Arts and sent to Wooler Arts PO Box 134 Wooler Northumberland NE66 9ES If you prefer to pay by bank transfer , please email us at info@woolerarts.org.uk and we will send you our bank details. Please make it clear which of the following you would like to support: Wooler Arts Summer Concerts Concerts and Recitals Glendale Community Ceilidh Band Poetry Café Visual Arts - Open Exhibition Highlights Thank you very much for considering to support us - it is very much appreciated.

Tim Kliphuis Trio – Rhapsody in Blue

Tim Kliphuis Trio

Location: St Mary’s Church, Wooler

Date/Time: Sunday 28th June 2026, 3.00pm

Rhapsody in Blue

Tim Kliphuis and his Trio celebrate 20 years of touring together by presenting a brand-new, virtuosic Rhapsody that swings, grooves and dazzles. With their trademark high-octane sound, the three play the role of orchestra and soloist, bringing back the free-flowing improvisational energy that Gershwin’s timeless melodies deserve.

Paired with the Rhapsody is the Trio’s popular arrangement Hoedown for the Common Man, as performed with orchestras across the world, that celebrates the music of yet another legendary American composer: Aaron Copland.

To top this exciting programme, the Trio play some Gershwin gems: It Ain’t Necessarily So, I Got Rhythm and They Can’t Take That Away from Me in a solo guitar version.

SUMMER CONCERTS SERIES 2026 PROGRAMMES MAY BE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND WILL BE UPDATED AS NECESSARY. FULLER DETAILS WILL APPEAR IN DUE COURSE.
