Join the Fort Gallery for a free evening of music and art on Thursday, Oct. 5 from 7 to 9 p.m.
Featuring musician Ciara Kuurne, the evening is part of the gallery’s “First Thursday” events, where on the first Thursday of each month they host a variety of visual aritsts, writers, poets and musicians from the local community.
Kuurne is described as having low register vocals with a dash of rasp, and a sound that is acoustic, crunchy and muddy, with lose tones of rock, folk and pop.
