Join us for the second Piergroup session led by Even Here, Even Now Orkney advocate artists Kerrianne Flett and Frances Pelly on Tuesday 1 April at 7.30pm

The sessions will be quite fast paced with a ‘hands on’ approach.

New members welcome!

Please email kari.adams@pierartscentre.com for further information or if you are interested in getting involved.

Piergroup is our young people’s collective for 16-26 year olds. Maintaining a relationship with senior students at local schools and artists emerging from Scottish and other Art Schools is a key part of the Piergroup philosophy. 

Even Here, Even Now is a campaign and manifesto created through Culture Collective to advocating for island-based artists in Scotland.

Culture Collective is a network of 26 participatory arts projects, shaped by local communities alongside artists and creative organisations. Funded by Creative Scotland, it is led in partnership by An Lanntair (Lewis and Harris, Outer Hebrides), Pier Arts Centre (Orkney), Shetland Arts (Shetland) and Taigh Chearsabhagh (North Uist, Outer Hebrides).

Getting to the Pier Arts Centre:
You can catch the X1 bus from the Kirkwall Travel Centre (Stand 2) @18.56

Get off at Stromness Ferry Terminal, and walk to the gallery (2 mins)

The X1 bus back to Kirkwall leaves Stromness Ferry Termiinal @21.00 - we will always finish the session in time for you to catch this bus (if anyone needs to leave earlier, that won't ever be a problem. Please just ask!)
