ArtWorks Scotland is a national skills development initiative for artists working in participatory settings. The project aims to generate a step change in the availability of information and training provision for artists, through engagement with Higher and Further Education providers, cultural organisations and employers as well as the artists themselves.

ArtWorks Scotland is part of UK wide programme of investment, ArtWorks: Developing Practice in Participatory Settings by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation (PHF) with support and funding from the Arts and Humanities Research Council, Creativity Culture & Education (supported by Arts Council England) and the Cultural Leadership Programme.
