A Braw Gaitherin

There was such a great buzz at Away Being yesterday, Mike Vass premiered Coming Home his new suite of music and The Edinburgh Youth Gaitherin Big Band did us proud.

It was a pleasure to welcome, artists Liz Skullina and Catriona Taylor, story teller Allison Galbraith and VJ Mettje Hunneman who generously gave their time, skills and artwork to make the Away Being pop – up exhibition happen.

Thanks to all who came to make art, eat cake, drink tea and discuss what makes Scotland feel like home.

The exhibition featuring photographs by Ian Paterson and John Maher continues in Gallery 1 at St Margaret’s House from 10-4pm until the 9th January.
