Festival Family Encounters
Saturday 25 May
National Museum of Scotland
The Festival will once again host a day of free pop-up performances and artist interventions for families in the beautiful settings of the National Museum of Scotland – an ideal way to get creative and experience exciting new ideas from local artists.
2023/24 Young Artists Programme
Our programme of FREE weekly performing arts workshops for children and young people aged 5+ has now started and runs until May 2023.
We are currently closed to new registrations for Wednesday, Thursday, Music and Dance. You can still join the waiting list for Scamps and Inbetweeners.
​
All our projects are free and you don't need experience to take part. We try to balance the ages and numbers of pupils from each of our partner schools so ask you to register and join the waiting list until a place becomes available.
