The Exhibition

The promotion material for this exhibition says:

"This exhibition explores the contrasts of contemporary Leith; the colour and flair of lifelong Leithers together with the chrome sheen of the new money.

It captures the character, idiosyncrasies and multi-culturalism of the port today, in the context of the coming decades [decade's or decades'?] immense regenerative plans.

'PORT' is a vibrant, unromantic celebration of the importance of community identity amidst an increasingly generic and anodyne society."
