Falkirk: From Place to Creative Space
Artist Survey

We’re developing a new creative programme for Falkirk town centre, funded by Creative Scotland. We’re holding a public engagement event on 26 March 2026 — attending in person is the best way to get involved and have your say. If you can’t make it, this survey is your chance to share your views and stay connected with the programme. Some views may directly influence what we commission and where, while others may point towards future opportunities for creative investment in Falkirk. All contributions are valued and will be shared with the steering group. The survey is open for two weeks. It takes around 5 minutes to complete.
