Windrush Legacy Creative Reflections Project 2023

The Windrush Legacy Creative Reflections project invites people of Caribbean descent based in Scotland to creatively explore our experiences, reflect on and celebrate our roots and our lives in Scotland, share cultural or personal stories and dream into our futures.
Pale mossy green background with images in circles in each corner: a 1950s radio, a kilt and sporran, thistles, a bird of paradise flower, 1970s phone, carnival headdress, vintage suitcases. Text says: Windrush Legacy Creative Reflections. Reflecting on our Caribbean roots, sharing our stories of life in Scotland and dreaming into our futures.

Artists Jeda Pearl and Courtney Stoddart are collaborating on a new project open to people of Caribbean heritage, including mixed heritage, living in Scotland.

The Windrush Legacy Creative Reflections project invites people of Caribbean descent based in Scotland to creatively explore our experiences, reflect on and celebrate our roots and our lives in Scotland, share cultural or personal stories and dream into our futures.

This project follows on from the Respect! Caribbean Life in Edinburgh exhibition and includes two online (free) creative writing workshops and culminates in an exhibition at the Museum of Edinburgh opening summer 2023 and a printed anthology.

Contributors will be paid.
