Southside lights up on 9th March – hurry to become a torchbearer!

We were intrigued to get some news about a guerrilla lighting event which is happening in Edinburgh next month. But you have to get a move on if you want to become part of it! To see the kind of thing The Causey are planning have a look at the video below.

PopUPLighting@theCausey
Wednesday 9 March 2011

Where and when?
Starts with hot drinks and snacks at the South Side Community Centre, 117 Nicolson Street, EH8 9ER at 6.15pm, moves to the site and finishes with refreshments in a local bar at approx 9pm.

What?

We’ll be spectacularly lighting up part of the South Side of Edinburgh, banishing the gloom of winter and showing some of our great buildings in a new light.

Who? We need PopUP torchbearers aged 18+ prepared to take the risk of having illicit fun. And tips for torchbearers…… Wear dark, warm clothing – you don’t want to be seen

It will happen whatever the weather – so bring wet weather gear

Travel light – you may need to move fast – and don’t bring valuables

All lighting will be provided

How to get involved

To register to take part, send your name / address / telephone / email / any special requirements as soon as possible to info@thecausey.org to arrive no later than 23 February 2011. Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis
