Join Free Climate Engagement Activities This Weekend

This weekend there will be a series of arts-based public engagement events in Kirkcaldy related to climate change, waste, and creativity.

There are still a few spaces left on the beach walks (Sat 30th May 11am-1pm, or Sunday 31st May 11am-1pm).

On Saturday join Sonic Intangibles for a family-friendly sound and data walk on Seafield Beach. Through listening, simple sonic experiments, and scientific data, participants will discover hidden stories of coastal erosion, pollution, and future seascapes – and experience the environment in a whole new way by hearing it.

On Sunday join artists Minty Donald and Nick Millar for a guided walk along Seafield Beach. Through gentle, hands-on activities, participants will notice waste and changing shorelines. Using a mix of materials, including items found on the beach, we will create signs and communication devices for humans and other beach-users now and in the future.

Book your place(s) at https://www.ukcoastalandfillresilience.org/pages/arts.

After a long, wet walk along the beach at Westkapelle, the storm finally moved onβ€”and left this behind. Shot with a Canon 5DSR and Sigma 24–70mm, capturing the shifting light as the sun broke through lingering clouds. Storm systems often clear the air, enhancing color and contrast. Sometimes, you just have to wait it out.

Golden sands stretch out beneath a vast blue sky at Harlech Beach, framed by rolling dunes that offer a perfect #SandDunes and #CoastalViews experience. Located in the scenic town of Harlech in Wales, the beach lies within the Snowdonia National Park, making it a serene #SeasideEscape for walkers and nature enthusiasts. The area is popular for #BeachWalk strolls, with the distant hills providing a dramatic backdrop for #NaturePhotography. Visitors often explore the expansive shoreline and the nearby dunes, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and wide-open coastal scenery.
