THE creation of a public art project for Winchburgh in West Lothian has moved forward after planning approval was given to transform a former housing development sales cabin into a venue for an artist’s workspace.Housebuilder Robertson Homes donated the sales centre at its Glendevon Grange development to Winchburgh Developments, the organisation overseeing the delivery of the Winchburgh masterplan.As part of ‘The Big W’, a public art plan for Winchburgh, the cabin will be used for an artist-in-residence to create artwork which resonates with the town’s past, present and future.The project is being managed by a partnership of West Lothian Council, Winchburgh Developments and the Winchburgh Community Development Trust.
