In June 2015 community partners in Wester Hailes, Edinburgh, and the Valuing Different Perspectives Project (University of Stirling) and ACCORD Project (Glasgow School of Art) organised the Community Connections festival fortnight, supported by the Arts and Humanities Research Council Connected Communities Distributed Festival.
In the middle weekend - Saturday 20 June 2015 - Wester Hailes hosted a visit from Cassiltoun Housing Association (Glasgow) and the ACCORD project from Glasgow School of Art.
While trusty research assistants did photogrammetry of the Wester Hailes totem pole, community members from Cassiltoun went on a social history walked and shared stories of regeneration and change with people from Wester Hailes.
The festival fortnight ended with the Gala premier (with red carpet) of the film A Walk Around Wester Hailes, a product of the Valuing Different Perspectives project.
The night also featured showing of other films, such as this video for The Underpass Song, and a showing of a documentary called The Huts, filmed in Wester Hailes for Channel 4 in the early 1980s.
