Aberdeen Arts Centre is inviting expressions of interests from professionals across the North-east of Scotland to join its board of directors.
Castlegate Arts Ltd, the charity that has operated the centre for over 25 years, is seeking individuals who wish to contribute their strategic expertise to one of the north east’s most important creative organisations.
The board is particularly keen to hear from senior leaders and C‑suite professionals with expertise in marketing, branding or advertising; fundraising, philanthropy or income generation; and business growth, commercial strategy or business development.
Senior professionals in hospitality and the creative sector (theatre, music, visual arts) are also encouraged to apply for the role with the home of grassroots arts in Aberdeen.

For more than 60 years, Aberdeen Arts Centre has played a crucial role in the north east’s vibrant arts scene through its programme of performances, Creative Learning Programme for children and adults, and an Artist Development Programme to support local professional creatives.
In May 2025, the centre launched the Save Aberdeen Arts Centre campaign – a three-year fundraising drive to raise £660,000 to secure its future. Individuals and corporate sponsors can find out more and donate at https://www.aberdeenartscentre.com/save-aberdeen-arts-centre.
Aberdeen Arts Centre encompasses a 350-seater auditorium; café bar; flexible spaces for performances, events, exhibitions and meetings; and the Children’s Theatre, opened by Catherine Hollingworth in the 1950s as a pioneering youth theatre (the first of its kind in the UK) and now used as a vital resource for professional artist development.
