A north-east performing arts group is bidding for a chunk of a £100,000 grant fund to bring circus workshops to Fraserburgh.
Theatre Modo, based in Peterhead, operates across the Buchan area and offers young people arts training and volunteering opportunities.
The organisation previously had a presence in Fraserburgh, but cut back activities due to funding issues.
However, Modo is now bidding to get a grant from the Your Voice Your Choice scheme.
Overseen by Aberdeenshire Health and Social Care Partnership, the initiative has earmarked £100,000 of investment for Fraserburgh town centre and another pot for Peterhead.
Eligible projects must show they can improve the health and wellbeing of the two town centres.
Last night Modo’s creative director Martin Danziger said: “This grant would fund Circo Modo Fraserburgh.
“We would run 12 weeks of free circus workshops for young people in Fraserburgh in preparation for the biggest community event in the area, Aden-een.
“Since 2010, hundreds of young people from Fraserburgh have participated in Modo events. They will help to produce and rehearse for their performance in an accessible venue and, on the night, we will provide transport for all performers to and from the event.”
The final recipients of the grants will be decided by public vote. Anyone with a town centre post code from Fraserburgh who is over the age of 12 can take part.
