Welcome to Aberdeen Arts Centre
STOP PRESS
Our volunteers have been awarded the Queens Award for Voluntary Service. This is the equivalent of getting an MBE and some of our volunteers will be attending the royal garden party at Holyrood in July. We are one of only 9 organisations in Scotland to receive the award and the only one in Aberdeen.
Quote from Annie Inglis "I hope that this recognition will give our volunteers some satisfaction for the work they have done for Aberdeen Arts Centre. I am so proud of them all"
