Arts and culture

 

Thriving, vibrant, creative, exciting

The arts are thriving on many levels and in many forms across the Highlands and Islands of Scotland. The region stretches from Argyll in the south to the Shetland Isles in the north, and from Moray in the east to the Outer Hebrides in the west.  It is a diverse region influenced by Norse, Scots and Gaelic culture and language.  These pages offer a snapshot of arts and culture in the Highlands and Islands, from the traditional to the contemporary.  More on arts and culture in the region...
