Starcatchers is Scotland’s Arts and Early Years organisation. We create performances and creative activities for babies and children from birth to 5 years and the adults who care for them.

Creative Kin was a three-year project (2020 – 2023) bringing together artists and kinship families in North Ayrshire. We delivered free, weekly creative play sessions designed to help kids and their carers play, get creative and spend some relaxed time together.
Fun, creative ideas to engage little ones at home without a lot of kit, stress, nor pressure to ‘achieve’ anything.
Are you a family based in Cowdenbeath or Dunfermline? Pop along to Starcatchers’ Play and Explore! Free creative play sessions for babies’ birth to 2-years-old in Fife.
Starcatchers are delighted to share Wee People Big Feelings Practical Guide for Practitioners; a practical guide for the Early Years workforce that explores the importance of creativity in helping our youngest children express how they feel.
In the heart of Wester Hailes, a once-empty shopping unit is the brand-new space transformed by Starcatchers to deliver their creative experiences for babies and their grown-ups in the community.
