Festival Events 2016

Essence of a Memory Exhibition

MSPs and staff at the Scottish Parliament will have the opportunity to view the winning entries from the To Absent Friends Essence of a Memory competition, currently running as part of the Luminate Festival of Creative Ageing. The competition invites entrants to submit words and an image which evoke a memory of someone they love who is dead.

Picture by one of last year's competition winners - Eleni Thomaidou:

'She used to call me “my little bird”.

I grew up with her.

She grew old with me.'

Scottish Parliament Garden Lobby, 7 - 10 November. (Not open to members of the public.)
