Musicians and listeners join together in the one space – on the stage – for an up close and personal experience where you will visit, enjoy and learn in a most authentic manner. CURRENTS is a real encounter – an occasion where music and minds can unite in delight. Enjoy a local cash bar in your comfy space, featuring Nova Scotia brews including Big Spruce, Cape Breton Brewing, Marble Mountain wines and Glenora Distillery’s finest whisky products.
