Reef Dwellers art show by artist Selva Ozelli celebrates the role of the oceans in our everyday life and inspires action to protect reefs which occupy only 0.1 per cent of the global sea surfaces.

Angle Fish (French & Mango): Native to Western Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
Anthias (Sunburst): Native to tropical and subtropical Atlantic and Western Pacific Oceans.
Beaugregory Fish: Native to western Atlantic Ocean.

Parrot Fish: Native to Indo-Pacific Oceans and the Mediterranean Sea.
Rabbit Fish: Native to northeast Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
Sweetlips Fish: Native to the coral reefs and moderately warm waters in the Western Pacific Ocean, although its primary habitat is the Great Barrier Reef.

In 2021, Scene Stirling commissioned a cohort of five artists to reflect on the COP26 conference, and how climate change impacts their lives and practice.
Working collectively over a few months, the cohort elected to build an ‘ecosystem’ of ideas, germinating concepts that balance disparate art practices, differing perspectives and contrasting experiences, coming together to create a harmonious whole.
The Scene Stirling Climate Change COP26 Commissions cohort is represented by filmmaker Sean Hall, performance artists Kate Clayton and David Sherry, musician Rory Green, and poet Ojo Taiye, working with each other for the very first time on this occasion, and mentored by artist, curator and peer-educator Jonathan Baxter.
The ‘Creative Ecosystems’ exhibition will be the first time their collective work is publicly shown. The exhibition will feature drawings, poetry, original music and sound work, video, and performance in what will be a uniquely immersive and thought-provoking experience.

Time
12 (Thursday) 6:00 pm – 28 (Saturday) 10:00 am

Beach Clean Friday
You can borrow a beach-clean kit from the Scottish Seabird Centre every Friday between 10.00 and 16.00. Volunteering your time to clean-up the coastline is a great way to help improve marine habitats and protect wildlife.
If you are interested in participating, please read the guidance outlined in this handy health and safety document created by our friends at the Marine Conservation Society. We ask that anyone borrowing equipment from us follows current government advice regarding coronavirus. We will be putting in place special measures to make sure that the equipment we offer is thoroughly cleaned between each use.
What’s in our kit?
- A litter picker
- A bag for the litter you find
- Some information about how you can beach-clean safely
- Some information about the wildlife you might see along the shore
Please bear in mind that we have limited equipment which will be distributed on a first-come-first-served basis.
What do you need to bring?
- Your own gloves (preferable thick gardening gloves)
- Appropriate clothing for the weather outside
- A face-covering to wear when you collect/return your kit
After you’ve finished your beach-clean, please bring your kit and the litter you’ve collected back to the Scottish Seabird Centre. We’ll clean the kit ready to be used again and dispose of the litter, recycling it where possible.
If you want to get involved but you’re not local to the Scottish Seabird Centre in North Berwick, why not check out the Marine Conservation Society website to see if there’s an event or a volunteering opportunity in your local area.
