SUMMARY:‘Harbourland’ launches at Creative Stranraer Hub
DESCRIPTION:Stranraer waterfront’s artist-in-residence Maya Rose Edwards will be sharing their work with the town at the Creative Stranraer Hub (23 King Street) from 15th October – 11th November. \n\n\n\nEntry is free of charge and visitors are invited to view and comment on a display of exciting works that have been co-created with local people. The display relates to the potential future of the waterfront area as active leisure and events destination for tourists and locals. \n\n\n\nMaya’s work is a part of the Stranraer Waterfront Community Engagement Project\, an innovative community engagement project funded by Dumfries & Galloway Council and delivered by The Stove Network and Creative Stranraer. It aims to place the community right at the heart of Stranraer’s future vision for the Waterfront. \n\n\n\nBetween November 2023 and April 2024\, the project has engaged with nearly 900 local individuals and 27 community groups to get people’s thoughts about the kind of waterfront they would like to see for the town. ‘Harbourland’ is the second phase of Maya’s work\, homing in on one aspect of the Waterfront proposals – a new area of reclaimed land between the slipway and the East Pier\, which will be formed using the material dredged from Loch Ryan to make the harbour area deep enough for larger boats to use the marina. \n\n\n\nAt the display in the Creative Stranraer Hub you’ll be able to see some of the initial design ideas suggested by local people for the new piece of reclaimed land through the creative activities that Maya has staged. There will also be a digital display of Loch Ryan underwater footage commissioned by SCAMP (Solway Coast And Marine Project) screening in the Hub windows and an interactive community report detailing the creative engagement process and its outcomes so far. You can find out more about Maya’s work to date at their online blogs HERE.

SUMMARY:SCAMP: "Oyster Odyssey" - Create Your Own Grotto with Oysters
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a SCAMP celebration of Oysters and create some Grottoes with these incredibly beautiful shells. \n\n\n\nSaturday 28th September\, Meeting at the Creative Hub\, 1:00pm – 3:00pm\n\n\n\nMeeting at the Creative Hub at Stranraer\, Nic Coombey will take you on a walk to find out more about Oysters and why they are so important to Stranraer and the outer Solway. After an adventure in search for Oyster shells we will return to the Creative hub to create some sculptural Oyster grottos. \n\n\n\nGrottos have been around for a long time\, often magical places in the form of small caves hidden away in the rocks or coves of coastlines. Sometimes these caves were carved to create decorative mythology-inspired features. They can also be man-made and became fashionable in gardens in the 16th and 17th centuries.  \n\n\n\nAfterwards\, you will be invited to join artist Maya Edwards for an oyster sand castle competition on the beach. \n\n\n\nThis workshop is brought to you by Solway Coast and Marine Project and Creative Stranraer. \n\n\n\nPlease dress for the weather. Ages 8 – upwards.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBOOK HERE
