Culture in Aberdeen
The city of Aberdeen in Scotland has amenities that cover a wide range of cultural activities, including a selection of museums and galleries.The smaller Aberdeen Arts Centre is a voluntary run theatre that normally caters for local events, often those held in the name of charity.Jamesone's achievements provided the opportunity for other Scottish artists to follow in his footsteps and make their art available throughout Scotland, and the rest of the world.Within this Gallery the impressive permanent painting collection of Damien Hirst, Ian Hamilton Finlay, Francis Bacon, Monet and Renoir have been held for over 100 years, allowing the inhabitants of Aberdeen and visitors to the city alike to admire their collected works in one central hub.GHAT strives to highlight culture as a central component of wellbeing and is a sector leader in developing bespoke arts projects for people visiting, working or utilising the services within hospitals and healthcare.
