Exhibition: The day the torch came to town - Bonnyrigg
23 July 2012 - 11 August 2012
Re-live the excitement of the day the Olympic Torch came to Midlothian with this exhibition featuring a selection of the best photographs taken by members of the public and council staff on the day.
Over 20,000 people throughout the county gave a fantastic welcome to the Olympic Flame on 14 June, with many lining the streets as they enjoyed Midlothian's moment to shine.
Now there's another chance to remind yourself of that historic occasion, as we launch a travelling exhibition of photographs taken on the day of the Torch's journey through the county.
See the exhibition
The free exhibition will be launched at Bonnyrigg Library 4 days ahead of the Olympics opening ceremony, and will feature a selection of the best photographs taken by members of the public and council staff on the day.
