Leith Art Centre

A new Arts Centre, with studios, Café and gallery space and rehearsal and performance space, is being created in a former Army drill hall at Dalmeny Street, Leith. 

This 1901drill hall was formerly used by the Royal Scots, then by the Territorial Army.

The hall has been acquired  by 'Out of the Blue' trust.  It is being refurbished and due to be opened to the public from summer 2006.  It is already being used by more than 40 artists and creative businesses.
