THE SHOP, 6 CROSSGATE, CUPAR view map

The Shop is the Festival hub, and will host a group exhibition by all artists selected to participate in the curated visual arts programme. Visitors to the Festival thus be able to see a small example of work by Festival artists here and hopefully be sufficiently intrigued to seek out the artists Festival project in the wider town. The Shop will also serve as an information piont, box office, and place to buy art.

CUPAR YMCA, 93 BONNYGATE, CUPAR view map

Cupar YMCA is housed in a beautiful two-storey townhouse on Bonnygate. As with last year, the staff at the Y have kindly allowed us to take over the top floor of the building for the Visual Arts programme.

This year, among other things, the Y plays host to Peter Haining's Attic Archive: Open Access creates a relaxed environment within the YMCA in which the public can discover and read handmade and printed data from The Attic Archive in Dundee. Open Access is the first public outing of The Attic Archive in Scotland.
