	Winner of the 2005 Saltire Society Art and Craft in Architecture Award As Chairman of the hugely successful ARCHIE Foundation fund-raising appeal, I am delighted that we were one of the main supporters of the Arts Project in the new hospital. Of the £5.1m total raised, £273,000 was allocated specifically to the Arts Project. I am very impressed with the outcome and feel that we now have an interesting and visually stimulating hospital the north east of Scotland can be proud of and other hospital and public art projects can use for inspiration. Moir Lockhead The Scottish Arts Council welcomes projects which provide new opportunities for people to engage with artists and their work, particularly outwith traditional gallery settings. The art project at the Royal Aberdeen Children’s Hospital is a good example where children, parents and hospital staff have worked with a range of contemporary artists and designers from across the UK in a creative process, to develop an inspiring hospital environment. The benefits of this dialogue between artists and users of the hospital is reflected in the high quality artworks throughout the building.
