Community Exhibition Opening Night
About this Event

Join Edinburgh Refugee Sponsorship Circles, in collaboration with Student Action for Refugees (STAR) , for the opening of We Belong Together β€” a exhibition celebrating belonging, community, and the strength found in diversity.

This exhibition shares the beauty of community sponsorship and the powerful role local communities play in welcoming newcomers. Alongside this, it offers deeply personal stories and reflections on how diversity enriches all of us β€” not just those who arrive, but those who welcome too.


Opening Event - Ticket required

πŸ“… Monday 2 March
πŸ•‘ 6.30pm – 8.00pm
πŸ“ Out of the Drill Hall, Edinburgh

Come along for an evening of connection, conversation, and creativity as we open the exhibition together. You’ll have the opportunity to explore the artworks, hear about the stories behind them, and take part in an interactive exhibition that invites visitors to add their own reflections and contributions to the artworks throughout the week.
