For the next few months you can visit the Kern County Scottish Society every 1st Friday of the month at the Arts Council of Kern !st Friday Art Events. This event features local artists displaying and selling their creations. Often time the Arts Council provides entertainment and there is always great food to chow-down (sorry, no haggis)!

KCSS is a non-profit organization which relies on membership and public donations and sales of items we create for events such as these. We have a variety of hand-made items for you to purchase; Many Scottish influenced; plushies, keychains, necklaces and jewelry as well as other great items. For the March event, The Arts Council will be featuring a Celtic-themed (Scottish/Irish) event, including live folk music and dance and will even feature a bagpiper, playing songs you will both recognize and enjoy. Visit our booth and help us to continue to share our culture with the community. (BTW you don't have to be Scottish or Irish to join).

Don't support big business that makes items in an assembly line. These items are lovingly created using the artists talents and time. When you purchase an item for the vendors, you not only help support the vendors' businesses, you also support small business in general, making our community strong by keeping the monies local! We all thank you for your support! Hope to see you there!
