Since 2014, Scotland’s Urban Past (SUP) has been helping people all over the country to explore the stories behind the urban places they love best.

SUP has worked with thousands of people sharing skills, from photography and oral history recording to using maps and undertaking surveys.

'Past Forward - Stories of Urban Scotland' celebrates this work with an interactive journey through the history of Scotland’s towns and cities, allowing you to experience Shetland’s Second World War defences, get an inside look at Ayr’s medieval St John’s Tower and test your skateboarding skills without leaving the exhibition.

Here's a glimpse of the community mural taking shape at the exhibition launch!
