- Visual Arts
SCAN Sparks is a new programme exploring how the cultural community can support grassroots activism and equalities-focused working. Later this year we'll launch our SCAN Sparks seed funding programme of micro-grants. In the meantime, we're thinking aloud with some people already making change. Here in the fourth of five SCAN Sparks podcasts to be released this spring and summer our Artist Policy Officer Sekai Machache speaks to Briana Pegado, the Founder and Director of the Edinburgh Student Arts Festival (ESAF), a social enterprise that supported public access to the arts and youth access to the creative sector.
Briana is also Creative Director of Fringe Of Colour Films, Co-Director of We Are Here Scotland, Chair of The Young Women's Movement Scotland and sits on the advisory board of the Travelling Gallery. In 2014 Briana was elected Edinburgh University Students Association’s first ever black woman president in its 130-year history.
