Arts Council of Scotland

The Arts Council of Scotland is a public organization that funds and supports the arts across Scotland. Its mission is to promote artistic excellence, diversity, and access, helping artists, organizations, and communities thrive creatively. By providing grants and strategic guidance, it aims to enrich Scottish cultural life, encourage innovation, and make the arts more inclusive and accessible for everyone. The council operates independently but in partnership with government and other stakeholders to ensure a vibrant and sustainable arts scene in Scotland.
