Venue: The Old Co-op, 43 Pennywell Road, EH4 4HA
Different items made by the Shed members from reclaimed wood will be on display over two days.
You will also be able to purchase items, and by doing so support the NEA Community Shed and its members. The pop-up exhibition & sale will be a perfect place to see a range of things made from recycled wood at the Shed and find sustainable items to decorate your home for Christmas and find festive gifts for your loved ones.
The NEA Community Shed is a welcoming, safe space where people living in North Edinburgh can come to make or mend stuff using recycled wood. We aim to be a fun space where our members can meet new people, learn new skills, and feel supported to realize their creative ambitions. We believe that when we work together we can achieve almost anything. Our limitation is our imagination. We run weekly drop-in sessions Tuesday – Thursday, 10am – 2pm and forthrightly Saturday sessions (9am-12pm). The Shed is currently funded by the Big Lottery Fund until January 2024.
Rik Hodgson, The Shed Manager said: “The North Edinburgh Arts Community Shed's mission is to enable people in the community make and mend beautiful and useful items for their homes, gardens, and community. We are hosting an exhibition of some stuff which has been made in the shed over the past 12 months and some items which we have made to help you decorate your homes for Christmas, including Mushrooms, Snowmen, Penguins, Christmas Trees etc. There will also be some other gorgeous items for sale and for you to enjoy looking at.”
Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
