Friends of the Mayfield are proud to announce their successful application to the Culture Night funding. As a result, artists from Art Included will be joining our community to host banner‑making workshops in the library. These banners will be created collaboratively with local residents and displayed during the Culture Night celebrations on the 1st of May and will celebrate the legend of the wolf that saved Stirling during a viking invasion.

Everyone is welcome to take part in one of several workshops, where we’ll come together to design and make banners that will be hung in the Baker Street Gardens in the city centre before being re-homed in the Mayfield Secret Garden.
The first workshop, open to all, will take place this Thursday 2nd April in the library 10-12 and will be an introduction to the project. There will be several more sessions where we will be working with established groups that meet in the library and community centre. On Saturday 18th April we will have a family session which will be bookable at the library desk. The final session will take place on Tuesday 21st 4.30-6.30 for Friends of the Mayfield and guests.
