As part of our third collaboration with the National Galleries
of Scotland and young people In North Ayrshire, I attended
the opening of the Beings Exhibition at the racquet hall in
Eglinton Country Park on 25'*^ July 2019.
Young people from North Ayrshire, alongside others from
Scotland, have created this exhibition exploring mental
health and wellbeing. It charts their emotional response to
powerful works of art and offers up creative insights into
young people’s minds. The exhibition has been on display
at the National Galleries in Edinburgh and we are
extremely grateful to the Galleries for providing the
opportunity to bring the Exhibition to North Ayrshire.
The month long exhibition will run in the Raquet Hall, Eglinton
