Mary Walters

Mary Walters, the editor of Yet We Survive, is a Scottish teacher, artist and a specialist in community arts projects. She first went to Dominica in 1986 to work on an international children’s project for the Commonwealth Arts Festival. She later led a workshop for young people from the Kalinago Territory; the words and pictures developed in this workshop featured in a touring exhibition (curated by Mary) for Scotland’s international photographic festival “Fotofeis”. From this material, she produced the first edition of this book.
