The Art Room is a UK charity working with children to increase their self- esteem, self-confidence and independence through art.

The Wester Hailes Education Centre Art Room was the first in Scotland and opened in June 2014. The Art Room provides theraputic intervention for young people in the Wester Hailes Community, who work in small group sessions with Art Room trained Senior Practitioners.

The artworks created by the young people are now going on show at an exhibition hosted by the Wester Hailes Library from the 12 – 25 February with the exhibition opening at 3.30pm on the 12th.
