Rooted in Community exhibition

Together with our partners, North Edinburgh Arts are extremely delighted to invite you all to the opening evening of the Rooted in Community Exhibition on Friday 28 April (6pm – 9pm) at Granton:hub (Madelvic House, Granton Park Avenue).

The exhibition is a celebration of community and diversity, highlighting the unique experiences and diverse cultures of people living in North Edinburgh and Wester Hailes. Through their work, the artists explore themes such as community, identity, grief, and mental health, inviting us to reflect on our own experiences and engage with the world around us.

From colourful paintings to representative photography, sculpture, portraits and pencil drawings, we invite you to take a journey through the works on display, each one telling a different story about life in North Edinburgh and Wester Hailes.

Come and see the amazing artwork by local artists!
