Exhibition: Caring Spaces
Artworks by Carers from the Lothians
(Sat 7-Sun 28 Jun)
This exhibition celebrates the creativity and resilience of unpaid carers across the Lothians, showcasing a diverse range of artworks produced through Art in Healthcare’s Caring Spaces initiative.
In partnership with VOCAL (Voice of Carers across Lothian) and Carers of East Lothian, this project offers carers a supportive environment to explore various artistic techniques, including collage, painting, ceramics, sculpture, drawing and printmaking. Facilitated by Juliana Capes, a multidisciplinary artist and parent carer herself, the programme provides participants with a much-needed respite from their daily responsibilities, fostering a sense of community and personal expression. The artworks on display reflect the participants’ journeys towards self-discovery, emotional resilience, and empowerment, highlighting the therapeutic power of creativity in enhancing mental health and wellbeing.
This exhibition is free and non-ticketed, however the exhibition space is sometimes used for private events so you may wish to call ahead to confirm it will be accessible for your visit. You can contact Reception on 0131 556 9579 or email reception@scottishstorytellingcentre.com.
