A huge thank you to our friends and collaborators, especially the artists and architects who lent us their time and twenty five magnificent and fun sculptures and architectural installations. And to the Villagers of Balquhidder, Lochearnhead, Strathyre and St Fillans who embraced #BLiSStrail 2016 and continue to support it."
