Lovers of Scottish music, food, and poetry: It's Robbie Burns' Birthday Again

FiddleSticks will be playing Scottish tunes and favorite Robbie Burns songs, poets will no doubt recite "To A Mousie" and "The Louse" and the Selkirk Grace, and there'll be food aplenty, including of course the well_blessed (?) haggis! Come to one or both!
