Thanks to everyone who attended the active travel and community arts event at Gypsy Brae on the 20th of June where the Art for Grown Ups community group, who are based at North Edinburgh Arts, unveiled the newly painted planters and blocks that were designed by the artists. The event featured Music from Tinderbox with local musicians and bands, along with Dr Bike, Smoothie Bike and BMX demonstrations and lessons. A big thanks to the R2 network for coordinating the event and to Sustrans for providing funding for the artworks
