About Us
Art Walk Projects is an artist-led organisation based in Portobello, coastal Edinburgh. We produce year-round site responsive public realm art projects, artist residencies, exhibitions and events embedded within communities of North East Edinburgh. Our emphasis is on environmental oriented new art and coastal futures.
From 2026 our annual festival, Art Walk Porty, is changing to Art Walk Weekends continuing annually in September, and we introduce a new environmental coastal biennial arts festival FORECAST, to commence from May 2027.
Our publishing wing, ART WALK PRESS, produces artists’ books and other publications coming through our residency programme.
We are recipients of Multi Year Funding from Creative Scotland and members of Creative Carbon Scotland’s Green Art Initiative.
