Treòir Voar Virr Project

Description

An ambitious multi-art form programme funded by the Scottish Government and co-ordinated by Fèisean nan Gàidheal, setting the wheels of rural recovery in motion with traditional arts as its vehicle. Treòir | Voar | Virr, meaning “a guide” or “energy, spring, vigour”, saw more than 50 creatives from more than 90 inhabited Scottish islands working with the community and the children of their local schools to learn about the area’s history and heritage through the arts. It provided employment and re-training opportunities for freelance creatives living in these islands following the loss of work for many due to Covid-19.
