About the event
You are invited to visit a community exhibition and consultation at granton:hub, hosted in partnership with Edinburgh College of Art. This exhibition is part of an international research project that focuses on 'heritage on the edge'. It will contribute to a better understanding of how cultural heritage is valued beyond the touristed city centers of Europe, by its local people.
The exhibition addresses a number of questions, including ‘What is heritage in Granton?’ and ‘What are the most important stories that can tell different generations about Granton’s past, present and future?’ The exhibition will be an opportunity for further discussions with the wider community in Granton. All the materials will be the basis of a traveling exhibition to be hosted in community centres, schools and churches in May 2024.
We particularly welcome families to come and view our display boards and consultation materials. Kids activities will be in place, to keep the little ones occupied.
