The Town is the Venue

Deveron Arts is based in Huntly a 4000 people strong market town in the north east of Scotland. For Deveron Arts the town is the venue: studio, gallery, and stage for a wide range of visual and performing arts. We invite artists from all over the world to live and work in our town to meet with local people and exchange ideas on issues of both local and global concern. For this we use found spaces all over the town and its surrounding area.
The artists' works form Deveron Arts' evolving town collection, which is placed in spaces around the town: at a local garage, an estate agent, a pig-farming co-op, the local library and museum, a hotel, the business centre.
Have a look at ARTocracy a book by Nuno Sacramento and Claudia Zeiske, which sums up Deveron Arts the town is the venue methodology in an easily digestible handbook.
