The work of seven leading designers from around Scotland will be showcased in digital displays inside the mobile gallery which will visit 78 locations over 17 weeks next year.

Exhibits, designers and members of the team involved in the £45 million project will be visiting art colleges, schools, community centres and libraries between February and June. Among the locations being visited on the tour are Lewis, Harris, Skye, Fort William, Oban, Campbeltown, Elgin and Galashiels.
