Come and join us as we showcase our annual exhibition, Gardens in Textiles and Threads, presented by members of ELEATA (East Lothian Embroiderers and Textile Artists).

This exhibition brings together a diverse and inspiring collection of textile art, highlighting the members' ability to combine stitch, fabric, and mixed-media techniques with originality, creativity, and flair.

Visitors will have the opportunity to view a wide range of beautiful pieces inspired by gardens and the natural world. Selected artworks, along with a range of greeting cards, will also be available for purchase.

This promises to be a truly inspiring exhibition and is not to be missed.

We look forward to welcoming you.

*FREE DROP IN WORKSHOP - MONDAY 27TH JULY, 10AM - 12PM*

Dukes Garden at Dukes of West Barns

Our Dukes Art Club students have been working incredibly hard to create a collection of ceramic sculptures and mixed-media paintings. Their artwork explores the devastating impact of pollution on our oceans while also celebrating its beauty, all in support of Scottish Coastal Clean Up.

To accompany the exhibition, we’ll be hosting a FREE drop-in workshop where participants can create their own weird and wonderful sea creature using recycled materials. The workshop will take place on Monday 27th July, from 10am to 12pm. We kindly ask that these sea creatures can be exhibited too!

Please note that parents and carers must remain with children and young people throughout the workshop.

We hope you can join us to celebrate the creativity of our young artists and help raise awareness of the need to protect our oceans.
