Various Museums and Galleries venues tbc
WHALE Arts and Museums & Galleries Edinburgh are teaming up to deliver their first ever Art-History Trips exclusively for the WHALE Arts membership. WHALE Arts will bring 25 people (23 members and 2 staff) to three Museums & Galleries Edinburgh venues in December 2024, March 2025 and June 2025.
WHALE Arts are a membership-led organisation and have been running regular activities which engage members in the cultural life of the local area. In facilitating these trips, WHALE are looking to build a bridge between local museums and the Wester Hailes community. Not only will these trips represent an opportunity to increase visitor numbers from underrepresented areas of Edinburgh to three cultural spaces but will help local residents to understand more about the city’s history and how it’s shaped Edinburgh today. WHALE hopes that these trips will both increase individual curiosity about these galleries amongst their membership and represent the first stage of a partnership that will help them collaborate more often with Museums & Galleries Edinburgh both within and beyond their venues.
