Oh what a night! Way back, two nights ago (that’s a long time in Edinburgh Festival time) the good folk at The List Magazine invited us to host a badge making event at their Festival Opening Party. It was a great line up of events and sneak previews of The List’s pick of the fringe. Edinburgh’s Summerhall Courtyard was transformed into a pick-nick night garden with a magical circus feel. Here a shed with a Barbour in it, there a chap playing a full sized up right piano being peddled about by a sprightly young gent and everywhere else you looked, tables of palls coloring in The Red Door Gallery’s badge designs.
We even had our own, delightful room where we set up a pop up shop, gallery and table devoted to creating badges. With badge illustrations provided by David Fleck, Hannah Botma, Kate McLelland, Susie Wright, Kirsty Baynham and Rebecca Kaye there was a delightful range of styles to choose from, and a constant turnover of enthusiastic badge makers!
If you took part in the event, we will be emailing through your 10% discount valid in The Red Door Gallery soon, so we look forward to seeing you and your badges again! We will also be adding our photos to our facebook page, so head on over and tag your good selves!
As ever, we’d love to see some of your photos, so send some our way please!
If you would like The Red Door Gallery to put on a creative, interactive event please email nicky@edinburghart.com.
