NEWS: Events in Edinburgh

It's getting to that time of year when it's hard to keep track of everything that's going on in the city, and we haven't even got to the festival month of August yet. So, what's on?

Green Design: Creativity with a Conscience is an exhibition at the Museum of Scotland, on until next Sunday. It's only small, but exhibits include a paper coffin, organic cotton and an environmentally-friendly electric guitar. There are also several interesting books for you to peruse, which I always appreciate!

Experiences in Organic Gardening is a free event organised by Friends of the Earth Edinburgh. It's at the Friend's Meeting House on Victoria Street on Thursday 29th June at 7.30pm.

Edinburgh World Justice Festival on July 1st looks at what has happened in the year since the Make Poverty History March (making me think what has happened in my own life over the last year since my boyfriend and I got together on that day!). It's a free event looking at fairtrade, international development and campaigning. Taking place between 10am and 4pm, it's at the Augustine United Church, 41 George IV Bridge. Email kathsevarATyahooDOTcoDOTuk and/or look out for flyers around the city, I picked one up in Henderson's Farm Shop on Hanover Street.
