Art Talks for Healthcare Settings

We are currently running an exciting Art Talks programme following a successful ‘trial run’ in the Summer. This involves us going out to a wide variety of Care Homes and related healthcare settings to speak about Art, such as paintings they rent from us on their walls, copies of pictures and Art books or even paintings people have done themselves. The aim is to further engage people in Art, particularly those people in healthcare settings and to stimulate interesting discussions. To lead the talks, we are now training a talented group of people with prior experiences of working in Art and Education.

New Works for Waverly Gate

Art in Healthcare are displaying 22 new paintings at the NHS Headquarters - Waverly Gate.
Some of the artists include:

Andy Goldsworthy
Victoria Crowe
Barbara Rae
Wilma Dunbar
Will McLean
John Brown
Mary Paton
Ann McPhail

New Artwork for the Albion Trust

Art in Healthcare is very happy to announce a new contract for 7 works at The Albion Trust (Norton Park)



Landscape With Long-Eared Owl by Mary Paton

Butterflies by Mary Newcomb

The Albion Trust is an independent registered Scottish Charity formed in 1994 specifically to establish Norton Park as the first shared premises project for voluntary sector organisations in Scotland. In developing Norton Park, the Trust was seeking to provide high quality, affordable shared premises for voluntary organisations to enable the sharing of experiences and resources.

Wine Tasting at Majestic Wine

We had a wonderful evening last night at Majestic Wine. After hanging the two Prestigious Prints in the fantastic space in the Leith Walk store we were invited to taste the fantastic range of 4 whites, 5 reds, 2 rosé, 2 gins and 3 lagers. We didn't taste them all but gave it a very good effort.

Jupiter Artland

Join Art in Healthcare Friday 10 June for a guided tour of one of the most magical gardens in Scotland!

Works by many of today's leading artists, sculptors and land artists have been commissioned and then constructed in situ.

The relationship of each artwork with its specific topographical location is a crucial feature of the artland, that is, art within the landscape.

The garden is a garden of discovery - an earthwork here, a copse of cradled rocks there, the entrance to a fathomless burrow right before your feet. We provide a map but no set routes. There are pathways, in places, but no path. Come and discover, contemplate and delight.
