Join art historian Keava McMillan for informal creative workshop using collage to explore Joan Eardley’s life and work at Catterline.

We will learn about the spaces, people, and scenes from this Aberdeenshire village that inspired and sustained the artist in the final years of her life. Using copies of letters, photographs, maps, and paintings, participants are encouraged to create their own vision of Joan Eardley’s home, landscape, lovers, and community.

Keava McMillan is an art historian specialising in queer Scottish art history. She is a Lecturer in Gender History at the University of Glasgow and works at Lavender Menace, a queer community archive based in Edinburgh.

Maltings at Hide Hill is a new Cultural Resource Hub made possible by funding from Create Berwick, the Culture and Creative Zone (CCZ) funded by the North East Combined Authority and Northumberland County Council to support the growth of the cultural and creative industries in Berwick-upon-Tweed.
