DREAMING IN THE LANGUAGE OF DRAWING

Updated: Sep 14, 2021

The Edinburgh Multilingual Stories Festival organised by Bilingualism Matters, Theatre Sans Accents and the Polish Cultural Festival Association brought together artists, researchers, children and communities to celebrate the diversity of Scotland’s many multilingual families and communities. It offered an opportunity for bilinguals to creatively explore and express what it means to learn and speak more than one language. For monolinguals, this was a good opportunity to get a glimpse of the bilingual experience.


In preparation for the Festival weekend (30th November to 2nd December, 2018) Bilingualism Matters at the University of Edinburgh and Edinburgh-based bilingual artists developed a series of workshops in collaboration with primary, secondary and community schools. The workshops aimed to explore through arts the experience and benefits of speaking or learning another language, along with challenging misconceptions about bilingualism.
