Kincardineshire’s art scene is shaped by its rugged coastline, historic towns, and the quiet creative energy that runs through this corner of northeast Scotland. From the cultural activity of Stonehaven and Banchory to the studios, craft workshops, and community‑led projects scattered across rural villages and coastal communities, the region offers a rich and inspiring environment for artistic expression. Artists here draw from dramatic seascapes, ancient sites, and the deep heritage of Aberdeenshire, creating work that feels both rooted in place and alive with contemporary imagination.
