Creative Scotland

Creative Scotland

Creative Scotland (Scottish Gaelic: Alba Chruthachail) is a development body for arts and cultural industries in Scotland. It inherited the functions of Scottish Screen and the Scottish Arts Council on 1 July 2010, and has an additional remit for the Creative Industries.[clarification needed] The Scottish Government brought it into being in 2010, and an interim company, Creative Scotland 2009, was set up to assist the transition from the existing organisations.

Aims

The aims of Creative Scotland are:

  • promote an understanding, appreciation and enjoyment of the arts and culture;
  • identify, support and develop talent and excellence in the arts and culture;
  • seek to realise all the benefits of the arts and culture; and
  • work with partners to support the creative industries.
