Creative Scotland supports culture and creativity in Scotland as a development organisation, a funder, an advocate, and as a public body that seeks to influence others to increase opportunity and maximise the impact our resources can offer. As a Non-Departmental Public Body, we are sponsored by Scottish Government and Scottish Ministers, with funding from both the Scottish Government and the UK National Lottery.
