An open workshop for anyone who needs access to tools and spares to repair their bike or work to bring an old bike back to life. Get help improving and sharing bike maintenance skills.

Low mobility walks which start from Summerhill Community Centre. They include a short 20 minute walk and 10-15 minutes of strength and balance exercises. These walks are suitable for people who walk at a slower pace or perhaps use walking aids. The exercises are important for improving strength, balance, stamina, flexibility and can help prevent falls.

**The creative spaces cohort are taking over Midsteeple Quarter’s (MSQ) front room, the standard, at 139 High Street. Join us for four days of workshops, games, music, performance, and creative experiments.** We’re starting our takeover off with something nice and casual. Come and drop in to see what we’ve got planned for the week and get to know the spacers. We’ll also be running a learn to repair session. If you’ve got a piece of clothing or a textile piece that needs a bit of repair, bring it in and spacer Lili will be able to help give you some tips and an introduction to techniques equipment to get you started. Whether you are an experienced repairer or it’s your first time, join in, have a chat about repair culture, and sustainability whilst prolonging the life of your favourite piece. Anyone who feels comfortable to share their repairing skills is welcome to come along and do so! **Accessibility Information** The Standard is a fully accessible building with street level entrances and disabled toilets.

**JUPITER+NATION DUMFRIES** Growing Pains is a site-specific installation by artist Lindsey Mendick set in an abandoned estate agent's office. Referencing her teenage years, Mendick has transformed the space into a haunting, immersive experience that explores the uncertainty, awkwardness, and societal expectations surrounding adolescence. Assembled on a spiralling desk that references the often cruel loop of teenagehood, Growing Pains features Alice-in-Wonderland-style ceramic dolls' houses that burst open, with teenage figures erupting from within. The work captures the surreal pressures that emerge at the threshold of adulthood, underlining the tension between a yearning for parental acceptance and the simultaneous urge to reject it. Jupiter+Nation is an ambitious off-site programme by Jupiter Artland that brings world class art to high streets across Scotland. Content warning: The supporting documentary film contains strong language, references to suicide, bullying and negative body image that some viewers might find difficult. Young people must be accompanied.

Young at Heart is a social group for the over 50s, formed at Summerhill Community Centre in February 2012 and now more than 100 members strong. Music and dancing, guest speakers, bingo and games, every Monday from 2pm to 4pm. Everyone is made very welcome — come along one Monday, or call the centre on 01387 247344.

It's back and it's going to be bigger than ever. The Big Dumfries Christmas Lights Switch On and Lights of Hope will happen at 7pm, but you can join us for an afternoon of music and fun including a visit from a very special Christmas guest and some reindeer. After the lights are switched on we'll all join Santa and his reindeers on a short parade around the town.
