SMIA AGM -

Our AGM will be open to both members and non-members and it will also be your opportunity to sign up for membership.
We will combine our AGM with the first of our quarterly SMIA members events which provide an open forum for the members to shape our plans for the next 6 months and to tell us how we are doing from their perspective. This will be followed by a quick drink and then we will be off to the opening night of Celtic Connections festival club. The first 30 members to sign up for membership on the night will receive a complimentary ticket.
