FOLK musicians showed practice makes perfect with an outdoor concert.
The group, which has been taking part in the Folkworks Summer School, demonstrated what its members had learned with a performance of traditional music in Durham's Market Place on Saturday lunchtime.
In the afternoon, families made the most of the return of the summer sun and gathered for a picnic in the grounds of the DLI Museum and Durham Art Gallery.
The summer school musicians performed again and prizes were handed out for the most unusual or mouth-watering picnic.
The events were part of the closing day of the Folkworks Durham Gathering, that has seen North-East folk musicians join fiddle and squeezebox players from Scotland, Sweden and the US, to perform traditional music from their homelands.
The finale was held in the Gala Theatre, with a Northumbrian Concert and a Celtic Night with Scottish and Irish music.
