Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On Tuesday Aug 11th at 7am, I'll take to the stage on the 4th plinth, Trafalgar Square, London with my bagpipes as part of the 'oneandother' public art event. www.oneandother.co.uk/participants/Mike_T
I am a musician and artist ,facinated by the concept of becoming a living statue in such a famous location. I feel the experience will bring out my talents as a performer on the Highland bagpipes against the backdrop of the National Gallery where I gain much inspiration as a painter. I intend to wear full highland dress and give a soothing wake up call to the pigeons by playing some beautiful Scottish airs on my national instrument.
The trip is self funded so all money raised will go to Down's Syndrome Scotland.
You can also check out my blog if you like which carries stuff about my artwork and music on www.miketurpie.com
Finally,
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
All the best
Slainte
