August 2014 News

29th July 2014

Welcome to the Out of the Blue Drill Hall at Edinburgh Festival time. Over recent years OOTB have been a venue for both the International and Fringe Festival and for the second year running we are delighted to be hosting the fabulous Forest Fringe (6th-17th). The Forest Fringe offer generosity, experimentation and improbability, in what promises to be spectacular and exciting. OOTB are delighted that included in this multitude of talent is Active Inquiry’s Fish is the Future (16th-17th), conceived, crafted and performed at the OOTB Drill Hall.

You are warmly invited to spend time exploring the many and various – all free by donation.

Outside of the festival antics, enjoy the fruits of OOTB’s all year round activity; play along at the highly sociable Wiff Waff Community Day (2nd), run away with the Miss.Fit Sister’s Vintage Circus (23rd), hunt treasure at the Flea Market (30th) and admire the fine work of OOTB studio artist Elaine Wilson’s exhibition (25th-28th).

Visit our website for a full run down on the range of events, classes, workshops and exhibitions. Feel free to get involved in the action and get regular weekly updates by joining us on Facebook and Twitter.

    We use the space we have developed in 6 buildings in Edinburgh for studios, workshops, classes, projects, exhibitions, social enterprises, events, clubs, music making, markets, a cafe and more.

    Our all year round activity helps create the culture of the city, supporting the local economy and having positive social impact for the thousands of individuals and organisations we work with.
