Every Tuesday at The Stove is Drop-In Day. Yesterday, we had some very special visitors all the way from India—the Rajasthan Heritage Brass Band, no less! The band were in the region courtesy of our friends at DG Arts Festival, who asked if they could spend an afternoon with The Stove and host a workshop in the evening.
