Multi award-winning singer and pianist Ian Shaw performs a powerful solo show celebrating one of the greatest songwriters ever.

Shaw was the first male artist to record an entire album of Joni Mitchell songs, Drawn To All Things (2006), earning plaudits and new fans around the world. This intimate performance reflects the wit, emotion and storytelling of Mitchell's remarkable catalogue.

"Shaw captures the beauty of Joni's poetry with an eye-watering vocal range and bucketloads of soul."

Don't One week until our 10 day annual Festival of the Arts kicks off so lets talk about Art at the Harwich Arts & Heritage Centre.

We've got exhibitions in multiple rooms across the centre including work by Tribe-F:

Here's a bit more about the Artists.

"Tribe is a self-organized, informal association of people living with schizophrenia. The group was founded in 2018 in Belgrade on the initiative of Bosiljka Brdar and Zoran Cvetković. So far, Tribe has brought together around 20 members who contribute through their work, some on a regular basis and others occasionally"
