Colony of Artists is an annual exhibition where a community of artists will be exhibiting in their own homes and other venues throughout Edinburgh’s Abbeyhill area, inviting the visitor to sample a wealth of arts, crafts, music, social history and more, over a weekend promising exhibitions, events, workshops and music, hosted in homes, businesses and community spaces, including the Hive Festival Hub at Holland House on Rossie Place, where there will be live music, food and drink.

This year’s presentation will be the eighteenth, and the event continues to grow; altogether some eighty artists will contribute, encompassing all manner of art and craft, and there will be a fun mural trail to enjoy.
