Children's winning Winter Windows entries unveiled!

Edinburgh’s young winning artists have received awards for their work on this year’s Winter Windows.

The project, part of Edinburgh’s Christmas, allows school children from the city to showcase their talents to residents and visitors outside of the classroom and in our streets and community hubs.

This year, Winter Windows will be displayed in front of City Chambers, in Gorgie’s White Park, on Great Junction Street by Leith Library, on Main Street in Kirkliston and at Goodtrees Community Centre in Gilmerton.

Each stained-glass window is designed around the theme of A Festive Welcome. This year’s Winter Windows is working with the support of the City of Edinburgh Council department of Arts and Creative Learning.

All 40 winners, chosen from 200 entries, received their awards at a special reception at the City Chambers in Edinburgh this week.

Winter Windows are on display until 26 December.
