June 2019 News

Friday 31st May 2019

Out of the Blue’s 25 year history has proven that tenacity is vital for sustainability. Our DIY ethos has relied on the support and expertise of hundreds of people who have worked with us to provide opportunities for the participation of thousands of people. The culture of Out of the Blue and the connections between the elements make us what we are.

For example, a young person can begin by taking part in a project, can become a trainee, can get work, can explore new creative processes, can earn a living, can gain qualifications, and go on to participate in the community. More so than ever we need to work together to build social value.

In June we welcome a range of activity as part of the Leith Festival, including the Exposed 19 exhibition and The Sideshow, an Active Inquiry, Strange Town and All or Nothing Aerial collaboration.

  • Donate

    Over the course of 2024 Out of the Blue will continue to offer opportunities for artists and members of the community to learn, participate and earn income.

    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.

    We would humbly accept a financial donation, however small, in support of our work.
