Hi all, At the end of my foundation course at Leith School of Art, I won a prize to produce a painting for an exhibition at Edinburghs City Art Centre and the time has finally come to promote it as much as I can! The exhibition is called Citizen Curator and is a celebration of Leith and its diverse and fascinating culture; historically and currently. There will be paintings and other art pieces by well-known artists and lots of funky artefacts from Edinburghs archives and collections. The exhibition opens on Saturday 26th October 2013 (I will be around that day so would be great to see some of you there) and it ends on the 23rd February 2014, meaning you really have no excuse NOT to visit it... unless youre out of the country, I guess! Its open Monday - Sunday and its free. And art galleries usually have pretty swell cafes so if youre not loving the arty stuff, Im sure youll fancy cake. Basically, Id really appreciate many of you to take a trip along to the exhibition. Goodness knows when Ill be exhibiting a painting in a gallery like the CAC again! Also, if youve been to see Filth and Sunshine on Leith, you might as well experience all the Leith-ness you can, whilst you can (seems to be Leiths year...) The link below gives more information on the exhibition and opening times, etc. If you do go along in the next 4 months, I hope you enjoy it! Thanks, Cat edinburghmuseums.org.uk/Venues/City-Art-Centre/Exhibitions/2013-14/Citizen-Curator--discover-Leith-s-artistic-heritag
