Category: Let’s Play Wester Hailes

We’re getting ready to go on the road for our first face to face project for ages in partnership with Whale Arts, Edinburgh. Starts 19th July and is open to children and young people aged 10+ in the Wester Hailes area.  Contact Craig at Whale Arts to book – craig@whalearts.co.uk

We’ll have other opportunities and online tutorials later in the year for those this doesn’t suit – details to follow!

After more than a year alone in the Napier offices,  arcade machine number 1 is ready to go on the road for our summer Let’s Play sessions at Whale arts.  Please excuse the miaows on the game- we were checking the sound!

Children and young people on the project will use Scratch  to help us make games about their local area, which will then be exhibited on this machine (and it’s two friends!)  We’ll be updating here as we go out and about making the games later in July and throughout the rest of the year.

We’re dusting off the arcade machines and making sure they are ready for the games the Wester Hailes community will be making for them this summer.  Check back to see what the young people at Whale Arts come up with….
