Granton Wasteland, a walk with poetry

Granton Wasteland, a walk with poetry - from Granton Harbour to Granton Square. Wednesday 25 September 2024, 5-6.30pm. Meet 13 Hesperus Crossway EH5 1FX W3W///expose.trails.navy

Harbour Connections and Tamsin Grainger, local artist and walk leader, invite you for a visit to a small patch of local wasteland where there is a provocative artwork and the makings of a guerilla garden. We will take a slow walk, plant some bulbs, and talk about the way green spaces nourish us. The artist will show and share her banner, Tessa Berring will read the poem which inspired the textile artwork, and Catharine Ward Thompson will talk about her research into the health benefits of local, cared-for, green spaces. This event will challenge you to notice the hidden and destitute corners we walk past every day and see what grows there. Together we will dream together about a different world. This event is free to attend.
