Connections is the first collaborative exhibition by BAAT region 16 art therapists.
BAAT stands for the British Association of Art Therapists, of which they are all members. As a region, they are spread out across Edinburgh, the Lothians and Forth Valley. Since 2020, they have been reflecting, collectively and individually on the different ways we connect and how this has changed:
“Through our work and personal lives, with ourselves and with nature. Pace, time and priorities have shifted for a lot of us.
“This exhibition is a coming together of some of our members to share our artwork, and to share physical space together. To celebrate the profession that connects us.
“We hope the works shown inspire you to connect with yourselves, and those people near and far.”
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.
