Arts and entertainment

The arts have a positive impact on learning, they can raise children's self confidence and self esteem and play a key role in their personal and social development.

The aim of the Percent for Art Scheme is to encourage the development of a high quality, well designed environment for people who live and/or work in East Lothian.

The Arts Service aims to support and promote a wide range of activities and events, provide information about sources of arts funding, and offer advice about other available resources and help in making arts funding applications. We can also help with planning and coordinating arts activities and events for local festivals and galas.
