NORTH EDINBURGH ARTS
TUESDAY 27th NOVEMBER 11am – 3pm
CCScotland Green Tease: Living well locally is taking place next week 
Join us for a day of workshops and conversations about how cultural activities can contribute to creating sustainable and regenerative communities.
When: 11am-3pm, Thursday 27 November
Where: North Edinburgh Arts
Join us at North Edinburgh Arts to understand how cultural activities can contribute to creating sustainable and regenerative communities.
In particular, we’ll explore the role of culture in 20-minute neighbourhoods – creating walkable and wheelable places where everyone can access their daily needs.
The morning session will be an introduction to pre-existing place-based work in Scotland. Lesley-Anne Rose will share her reflections on the importance of culture in place planning and community work, Pippa Cook will introduce the Place Standard Tool and Rebecca Dillon-Robinson will outline the policies supporting local living and 20-minute neighbourhoods in Scotland.
At 12pm, we’ll break for a shared lunch of soup and sandwiches.
The afternoon session will involve creative mapping of Granton (North Edinburgh? – Ed.) and the places where participants live and/or work.
This is an opportunity for participants to reflect on how culture can support sustainable development or regeneration in their communities. We’ll end the afternoon by developing a toolkit incorporating culture into placemaking.
