I have worked in the cultural sector in Scotland for many, (many) years producing large-scale public art events and festivals. I recently moved to the Island and I am currently working with Rothesay Townscape Heritage Initiative to assist Bute Island Alliance to open their new co-working, creative space in Rothesay town centre. The Bank of Ideas is based in High Street and is a pilot project aimed at supporting the artists, makers and shakers on Bute by offering space for rent, business support and networking opportunities.
