Doors Open Days – Inverness Creative Academy
Saturday, September 29, 2018 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm
The Inverness Creative Academy project will see Wasps transform two beautiful B-listed former Inverness Royal Academy school buildings in the Crown area of the city into a creative hub.
This will be the largest creative hub in the Highlands, providing space for artists, designers, makers, creative industries, arts organisations and cultural social enterprises.
Wasps’ mission has been to provide space and support activities in which creative people can flourish. They now have a 40 year track record or supporting Scotland’s creative community and have grown to become one of the UK’s largest studio providers. Wasps currently house 800 visual artists, 25 arts charities and 33 creative businesses at 18 sites across Scotland.
During this guided tour we’ll share some of the historic research and hidden histories within the building along with an opportunity to see the new studio spaces before the tenants move in.
The buildings are an active construction site and you will be provided with a hard hat and high-visibility vest. We also request than you wear sensible footwear.
