Mira Opalinska International QuartetThursday 25th June 2009, 9.00pm
City Halls : Recital Room Tickets £8 from www.glasgowconcerthalls.com
Mira Opalinska (b. Rzeszow, Poland, 1982) is a highly versatile pianist based in Glasgow, Scotland. She has over fifteen years experience performing in a variety of musical settings: from classical chamber music and concertos to jazz groups and big-bands; from intimate music theatre work to large scale touring shows. Now her passion lies firmly with improvisation/jazz and in this role she regularly performs around the UK and her native Poland. In early 2008 she formed the Mira Opalinska International Quartet and later that year had the privilege of supporting fellow Pole, Tomasz Stanko.
Further information can be found on her web site at www.miraopalinska.com
To properly acknowledge those few remaining members of the Polish Armed Forces denied their place in the Victory parade, and to recognise the valuable contribution made by Free Polish Armed Forces to the Allied effort.
Please read the full petition to the Prime Minister to Recognise the contribution of Polish Armed Forces in World War 2. petitions.number10.gov.uk/polishforces/
Unfortunately, it's only open to British citizens and residents but you probably have friends and relatives in the UK you can send this to - they don't have to be only Polish people. (Don't forget to include all the names of the people living at the address you quote.)
So please do whatever you can to make sure that our families' contributions and sacrifices will not be forgotten.

New Polish Association
for Poles in FalkirkAlthough the SPK Polish Club in Falkirk recently closed, there is fresh interest in providing support for Poles in the Falkirk area.
Robert Starzynski of The United Polish Falkirk Association (UPF) says he is proud to introduce their new website.
" We have done our best to show what UPF is about, what we do and what our plans are for the future. The web is bilingual, so English or Polish you can still enjoy and benefit from it. We hope that you will find it interesting and if you would like to give us some feedback or you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact us."

On the trail of Scots
in Northern PolandTrev Hill moved to Olsztyn in Poland from Glasgow six years ago where he now teaches English as a foreign language. He has become interested in the history of 16th/17th Scots in the area and often finds himself visiting local places to see if he can find any remaining traces of these early Scottish migrants.
He has kindly written a short article for our web site telling the story of what he has discovered so far.

Justice Minister visits the Sikorski Club Friday
20 Feb. 2009The Polish Social & Educational Society is pleased to announce that Scottish Justice Minister Kenny MacAskill has addressed a reception in our club.
His visit was intended to reinforce the Scottish Government's support of communities all over Scotland, including migrant worker communities, which make up the rich diversity in Scotland today; The eventl also provided the Cabinet Secretary with the opportunity to hear first hand what life is like for migrant workers living in Scotland today.
He said that people have been coming from Poland, Lithuania and all over Europe to make their homes in Scotland for generations. Scotland's diversity has always been and will continue to be a great
strength.
We gave guests of the Sikorski Polish Club an insight into the history and heritage of the club, and provided the opportunity to discuss current issues and past experiences of living in Scotland as a
migrant worker, whether it be a recent arrival or 2nd and 3rd generation settled migrants.
