Unique Dyslexic Get Creative is
living up to its name by holding an exhibition at the Rothes Halls Glenrothes
in Fife on the 29th October 2014.
This event is the first of its
kind to be held in Scotland, and is quite unique in that it is exhibiting work
produced by dyslexics at five free creative focussed workshops run throughout
the Fife area over the last 6 months. Participants at these workshops came from
all over Fife, and beyond, to take part. The workshops involved working
creatively with glass, music, visual art and up-cycling furniture.
The exhibition will also include
creative works from creative dyslexics from around the world uploaded onto
Unique Dyslexic’s website at:
http://www.uniquedyslexic.com/
and our Facebook page at:

Celebration of Creativity is being opened by Jim Leishman, Lord Provost of
Fife, and hosted by Steve McCue, CEO of Dyslexia Pathways CIC. Unique Dyslexic
Get Creative is organised and run by Dyslexia Pathways CIC and funded by: The

there on the day to give a flavour of what attending the workshop meant for
them. There will also be the opportunity
