About Festive Night at Dovecot
Enjoy a complimentary glass of fizz while creating festive decorative pompoms on the spectacular Tapestry Balcony. Our expert curator, Ben Reiss, will be on hand to give you a guided tour of our exhibition, Scottish Women Artists: 250 Years of Challenging Perception, and an insight into the current artworks and projects on the Weaving Floor.
The wonderful team from Garvald Edinburgh, a local charity that provide opportunities and support for adults with learning disabilities, will be there on the night with a selection of their original pieces available to purchase, ranging from textiles to tools, with all profits going towards continuing their work.
Plus, there will be 10% off purchases in the Dovecot Gift Shop - An evening not to be missed!
