Recurring Events
Masham is home to the Masham Steam Engine & Fair Organ Rally. It was started in 1965 to try to raise money for the local town hall and it has gone from strength to strength ever since. The organisers are the Masham Town Hall Association. The Black Sheep Brewery sponsors popular annual folk festivals; previous performers have included Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers). A cultural highlight is Masham Arts Festival every two years. The next one will take place in 2013. The annual Sheep Fair is in September.

Famous quotes containing the words recurring and/or events:
“Let us think this thought in its most terrible form: existence as it is, without meaning or aim, and yet recurring inevitably, without a finale in nothingness—”eternal recurrence.””
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“As I look at the human story I see two stories. They run parallel and never meet. One is of people who live, as they can or must, the events that arrive; the other is of people who live, as they intend, the events they create.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
