2013 is designated as the Year of Natural Scotland. We know that the Scottish Poetry Library is planning a programme around this theme, and Creative Scotland are partnering up with SNH for a conference.  We’ve listed below some information which we’ve been able to pull together. Of course, like Homecoming, this is about tourism, but maybe it could be more?
If you want to tell us about projects or programmes you’ll be running during 2013, or resources that you think might be useful to share, just email us chris at fremantle dot org.
