The Welcoming is a Scottish charity dedicated to supporting asylum seekers, refugees and migrants in Edinburgh. We will be working with them on a new series of art workshops. Also partnering with the National Galleries of Scotland (NGS) we will be running a series of 8 workshops working with artist Alena Rogozhkina to deliver some relaxing art sessions for those new Scots affected by war, displacement or persecution.
Pictured here is Lizzie from the Welcoming, Maro from NGS, Alena and Iona, our Outreach Manager – the beginning of an exciting partnership!
The eagle eyes among you may recognise Lizzie who ran the Edinburgh Marathon to raise money for us earlier in the year.
