There is a threat to the future of the City of Edinburgh Music School as you will know if you read our recent articles. Our latest is here and The Edinburgh Reporter exclusive is that the school will no longer form part of the cuts.
The Finance and Resources Committee meets on 7 November 2017 when they will discuss putting out the draft budget framework to the public. It was derailed at the last committee meeting when opposition councillors argued they did not have enough information to make a decision.
Now they have to decide where the cuts will fall.

At the Open Eye Gallery they have a new exhibition opening on 3 November 2017. As is usual at the Open Eye, there are various strands to the exhibition, painting, ceramics and work with felt and wood.
Catharine Davison RSW: Light Lines, Night Shapes
In this, Catharine Davison’s third solo exhibition at the Open Eye Gallery, the act of looking remains fundamental, but there is a shift of emphasis from expansive topography to a more intimate physical world – the world of the hills and suburban gardens in south Edinburgh surrounding her home in Oxgangs.
Ann Ross RSW: Flora and Fauna
Ann Ross RSW lives in Edinburgh and is a frequent exhibitor with the Open Eye Gallery and various private galleries throughout Britain.
She has always been inspired by the world around her, at home or abroad. The memory of different experiences, cultures, weather, people, animals and wildlife, towns, buildings and landscape have all been recalled in her work.
Rachel Wood Ceramics
Rachel Wood makes a range of stoneware vessels with heavily textured surfaces, swathed with layers of slip and glaze to create depth and mystery. The marks from fingers, tools and making processes have always been an intrinsic part of the character of each work.
Michael Waight’s exhibition Landscapes Thought and Felt includes both wood constructions and monoprints showing astutely observed but deconstructed views of the landscape. Both the constructions and prints start from a point of noticing something within a landscape. A colour note or a form that is observed. ‘It then goes on a small journey,’ as Waight has said, ‘trying to balance the observational with a more composed element. It sits within the grounds of the “poetic logic”. A collaboration of the imagination and moments seen in front of the eyes.’
