It is 30 days to go until we begin we begin work to transform the City Observatory complex on Edinburgh's Calton Hill, in partnership with the City of Edinburgh Council. Collective's vision is to be a new kind of City Observatory. We will restore the outstanding site and provide a meeting place for research, science, heritage and contemporary art. Collective will create a space in which artists, producers and audiences can meet, debate and explore both the historic and the contemporary.

Watch our film on the left to learn more about our plans for this extraordinary place and how you can support out vision.

Collective is delighted to have secured the support of key funders including the Heritage Lottery Fund, Creative Scotland, Edinburgh World Heritage as well as many other trusts and foundations. Collective is in the final stage of fundraising but still needs your help to full realise the vision. Click here for further information and to donate.
