We are honoured that so many talented, innovative artists have chosen to present their work at Summerhall this August. By making and sharing work about what matters to them, from their different perspectives, places and histories, these artists give us all a reason to gather together, to experience something new and to celebrate human creativity and connection. We look forward to welcoming you back to Summerhall. We know that you will find plenty to explore, discover and enjoy.
