Arts Groups

Bathgate Concert Orchestra

West Lothian is rich in community arts clubs.   Every month more around 150 different groups meet in communities from Linlithgow to Fauldhouse.   They do a huge range of arts activities including music, crafts, dance, drama, film, heritage, photography, visual arts and writing.

The clubs are encouraged and supported by Arts Services which administers a specialist arts grants scheme offering finanacial support for start ups, projects and professional fees.   Dowloadable grant application forms are on this page. 

Arts clubs can also access a range of training and more general advice.   Details of club activities are given in the West Lothian Arts Brochure and contact details are included in the Arts Directory.   Dowloadable versions of both of these publications are also on this page.
