A theatrical performance scene with two performers on stage under dramatic lighting. One performer, elevated on a pole, wears a shimmering costume with a long tail and a large animal headpiece resembling a seahorse or dragon. Below, a second performer reaches up toward them, dressed in a vibrant, textured outfit. The background is lit with bold purple, green, and amber spotlights, creating a magical, surreal atmosphere.

We’ll meet at North Edinburgh Arts (NEA) at 10am before heading into the city for the Festivals. We will be going to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to see a performance of The Unlikely Friendship of Feather Boy and Tentacle Girl. Then, after grabbing some tasty lunch, we will head to National Galleries of Scotland to visit the Resistance photography exhibition and explore the grounds at Modern Two.

Food and travel to and from NEA will be provided.
Pick up from NEA at 4pm.
This trip is hosted by the North Edinburgh Arts (NEA) Youth Arts Collective, in partnership with Imaginate, as part of Creative Encounters.
