Today Jenni and Anneruth went to Prestonpans to be shown round the Goth Tavern by Andrew Crummy:
It was such an inspiration to meet the artists of Prestonpans in the Goth going about their business - which is cleaning , cooking, meeting, greeting, and just simply oozing supportive creative community. I Penicuik lost Jenny to Jane's art classes in Prestonpans! Good on you!!
Have a look through the slide show, read the captions.
The genial way how this social enterprise flourishes is that they attract tourists to this legendary place in the now also legendary mural town of |Prestonpans by offering them not just home brewed beer but also a tour of the place and a meal for a voucher of £10 or £15.
95% of the profit of the Goth, which serves fab food and hosts functions and clubs, go back into the community. And there is always an exhibition on!
