Zines and Stones workshop
UPDATE: Unfortunately this event has been postponed. Check back for a new date soon.
PenPals and Forgan Arts Centre are teaming up again for another creative day-trip for LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent folk. This time, we’re planning to visit the standing stones of Lundin – three huge, ancient megaliths on the Fife coast – before spending the afternoon in a creative workshop on our connections to queer history. There’ll be a chance too for a wee visit to the coast.
The workshop is free, but places are limited, so booking is essential. We’ll provide support for travel too. You can book a spot in our cars leaving Kirkcaldy at 11am and returning at 3pm, or you can meet us at our venue, the Paxton Centre, and we’ll refund travel costs within Fife.

Creative Social: clay fidgets, charms and worry stones
Come experiment with earthenware clay and create small hand-held tactile pieces to be used as charms, fidgets, stim toys or worry stones. There will be a range of coloured clays and glazes, as well as the chance to burnish your piece – a technique which brings out the natural shine of the clay. Open to all Penpals Members. Spaces are limited. Please RSVP via the penpals email: hello@penpals.site.
Participation in guided activities is optional, you can drop in without registering if you want to bring your own crafts, chat or sit quietly in the corner. Drinks and vegan snacks provided.
Access info: 299 High Street, Kirkcaldy, KY11JL. Level access; bathroom with level access, but not an accessible bathroom.
