Major street art festival under way in Aberdeen

Nuart Aberdeen is taking place this Easter weekend. Inspired by Nuart that has taken place in Stavangar, Norway since 2001, this major street art festival in Aberdeen is on from Friday 14 – Sunday 16 April. Developed in collaboration with Aberdeen Inspired and Aberdeen City Council, Nuart Aberdeen aims to provide a platform for local, national and international artists to showcase their work through a series of site-specific murals, installations, interventions, and temporary exhibitions. Large and small images have been appearing on city buildings in recent days. This will also be supplemented by a program of talks, presentations, film screenings, walking tours and workshops over the course of the Easter Weekend. The organisers hope it will become an annual event and more information can be gained from the Nuart Aberdeen website.
