News & Opportunities Creative opportunities A Creative Century How does it feel to be creative in your 20s? What about your 40s? 60s? Or 90s? That's what we set out to discover when we curated 'A Creative Century', an exhibition of photographs, videos and testimonials with ten people in Edinburgh who regularly take part in a creative activity - and who are each drawn from a different decade of life. The exhibition was first shown at Dance Base in the Grassmarket, and will shortly be on display in various Edinburgh libraries (dates and venues to be announced soon).
