Opening today: Roots A dialogue between Ukrainian and Scottish mythology 12-20 June 2026 This exhibition didn’t begin at a gallery or a workshop; it began when Ukrainians were forced to flee the war in their country and found sanctuary in Orkney. While finding their footing in these islands rich in myths, they couldn’t help but notice the similarities between Scottish and Ukrainian folklore. Over the past few months, the artists dived back into the stories from their childhood while also exploring the myths and folklore of their new home. Though different on the surface, Ukrainian and Scottish mythologies have quite a lot in common The exhibition is part of Refugee Week Scotland 2026 Open Tuesday-Saturday 10:30-5. Admission Free #PierArtsCentre #RefugeeWeekScotland
