Thursday night was party night at Mono!

Despite the rotten weather a good crowd turned up at Mono last night to the opening of Tommy Mason's solo exhibition and to hear beautiful music by R M Hubbert, Alasdair Roberts and International Airport djs. 

We raised a staggering £333.33.  We had wonderful raffle prizes (a huge thanks to everyone who gave so generously) and our pop-up shop did a roaring trade in cards, jewellery and collectables.

Thank you Alasdair, thank you R M Hubbert and thank you mono and monorail music.
