Arts development programmes, along with contemporary and traditional exhibitions in the Art Lover’s Café, provide inspirational opportunities for children, young people and adults to engage in a range of art, design and architecture events within the House, our purpose-built studios and within our surrounding parkland.
Arts Development
Play a part in art
“Reason informed by emotion, expressed in beauty, elevated by earnestness, lightened by humour – that is the ideal that should guide all artists.”
Charles Rennie Mackintosh
Local schools, youth and community groups that wish to develop a creative project in partnership with us, or visual artists, designers and architects who have interesting ideas for exhibitions or creative educational initiatives are warmly encouraged to get in touch.
Art Park
Since 1999, House for an Art Lover has promoted, funded and established partnerships to deliver several public art projects within the park, usually through competitions open to artists, designers and architects across Scotland.
