Welcome to the Grampian Hospitals Art Trust (GHAT) web site. Since the launch of the original Hospitals Arts Project in 1985 we have continued to work towards the enhancement of health care spaces throughout NHS Grampian.

Alongside other projects our core business remains as expressed in our originating Deed of Trust:

‘… to promote the display of works of art in the hospitals… for the enlightenment, enjoyment and education of patients… and all those who work in or visit these hospitals.

The artRoom Project was piloted by Grampian Hospitals Art Trust (GHAT) in various locations throughout NHS Grampian, and the first continuous artRoom Project was set up in Roxburghe House where it has been running successfully since 2008. artRoom is an arts project which engages with patients, enhancing wellbeing by providing opportunities for participants to engage with a range of art forms. The projects offer patients new and inspiring challenges and enabling individual creative development.

Grampian Hospitals Art Trust are organising its 2013 exhibition programme and looking for proposals for their exhibition spaces in Aberdeen Royal Infirmary and His Majesty’s Theatre.

In 2010 NHS Grampian needed to site a new MRI scanner and the most appropriate space was the area used for the GHAT Gallery. Even though this is a loss to GHAT an MRI scanner is an essential part of NHS health care provision. However we still have the small gallery just at the base of the stairs and a new exhibition space at His Majesty's Theatre in the city centre.

Artists are invited to submit proposals and ideas for exhibitions and projects within these two spaces.

Any funds raised by GHAT will contribute to the placement of artworks which benefit patients and visitors in healthcare spaces across the NHS Grampian area from Forres to Stonehaven, assist with the development of our patient centred arts sessions at Woodend Hospital and Roxburghe House, and funding THE SPACE on the ARI site.

Grampian Hospitals Art Trust is delighted to present an exhibition of paintings by patients who attend the Specialist Rehabilitation Units at Woodend Hospital.

The GHAT Office is now located in top left "porta cabin" just off the main corridor.
