We are delighted to be able to once again showcase the amazing work of our primary school pupils on our Mill Street Projection Walls in a takeover over the festive season.
Our colleagues in ECS have brought the ‘Big Big Art Project’ once again to our 1/2
schools who have responded in huge numbers this year.
Over 20 schools have taken part sending in over 240 paintings and drawings along with 20 short animations.
We absolutely love the work with the projections running daily from dusk (around 4.30pm) running until 4th January.
This evening Perth is illuminated in orange and purple to mark the launch of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Based Violence Campaign.
Supported by the Council and running until 10 December, a series of events have been arranged throughout Perth and Kinross
Tomorrow 11th November marks #armisticeday
We will fall silent at 11am as a mark of respect for all those who have lost their lives in conflicts past and present.
The day also marks Polish Independence Day and the red lighting also acknowledges the sacrifice made by Polish service personnel many of whom are buried at Wellshill Cemetery in Perth.
Our school students were asked to create their own vision of a future for a climate resilient Perth & Kinross through artwork in response to the climate change issues that affect us all...
As part of that for the duration of #COP26 these will be displayed as part of our Mill Street projections.
A small selection of which is shown below.
Thank you to all the students for the amazing work and messages you provided.
Illuminated in green this evening to mark #WorldMentalHealthDay today & every other day, take time to care for yourself & those important to you, don't be afraid to speak up.

On this UN #AntiRacismDay, we are reminded that we all have the ability to make change.
Perth bridge this evening is illuminated to show our support in the stand of the #WorldAgainstRacism
We can all stand each and every day against racism and discrimination.
With more scaffolding due to come down in the coming weeks these will be our last photos from 'on high' as we move to complete works at St. Paul's by late Spring, creating a new open public space at the top of the High Street.
