Mak A Laang Erm

Gaada presents a special group exhibition, with work made in the Gaada Visual Arts Workshop over the last year by artists in Shetland and beyond.

The title comes from the popular Shetland phrase “Du’ll hae tae mak a laang erm”, which encourages us to help ourselves and take what you need. The exhibition extends out of Display and into the workshop for Doors Open Days on Saturday 25th September and Sunday 26th September.

Gaada’s outside exhibition space Display will house a series of work in progress and action shots from the Gaada workshop over the last year.

Covid Safety

We kindly ask that everyone that enters the Gaada Workshop for the open days wears a mask (unless you have an exemption), signs in at the door, and uses hand sanitiser. This helps us keep Gaada safe for the people who work in the workshop. Please note that Gaada’s toilets are not open for public use.

A really really long erm!
