From Sarmed Mirza:

I'm taking on the Great Scottish Run 10K for the third time for my parents, for everyone living with mental health challenges, and for their carers.

To make each step count I am creating and selling artworks that reflect this journey.

Welcome to South Asian Artists in Scotland!

In July 2024 National Theatre of Scotland offered a free networking event for South Asian artists where it became clear that we need more opportunities to gather and champion each other’s work.

We hope to bring a small portion of those aims to fruition.
