Mar Oifigear Cultair Ghàidhlig CHARTS, tha Àdhamh an ceannas air leasachadh ro-innleachdail sheirbheisean cultarail Gàidhlig ann an Earra-Ghàidheal is ann am Bòd.

Tha Engage Scotland a’ tairgse clàr coiteachaidh, rannsachaidh is ullachaidh a chuidicheas gus inbhe, eugsamhlachd is buntainneachd cheanglaichean is com-pàirteachaidh sna h-ealainean lèirsinneach ann an Alba a dhaingneachadh. 

Tha an t-Ollamh Dèirdre NicCionaoidh air a bhith ri prògramadh ealain lèirsinneach an latha an-diugh fad 25 bliadhna, ann an Alba, anns an Eadailt, agus air feadh na Roinn-Eòrpa, a’ leasachadh is a’ stiùireadh mhodhan-obrach a bhios a’ gnìomhachadh eòlas is a’ cruthachadh cheanglaichean do dhaoine tro dheasbad eadar iomadh seòrsa riochd. Tha a cuid rannsachaidh a’ sgrùdadh atharrachadh sòisealta is àrainneachd agus modhan ùra de chruthachadh cultarail tro chuimseachadh adhartach, a mhìnich i na tràchdas PhD ‘Duration, Cultural Programming and Sensemaking’ (Oilthigh Dhùn Deagh le maoineachadh bho AHRC).

Tha Janie Nicoll na neach-ealain lèirsinneach Gàidhlig a tha stèidhichte ann an Glaschu le cleachdadh a tha a’ toirt a-steach an dà chuid saothair le ceanglaichean sòisealta agus na tha stèidhichte san studio. Tha ceum le urram den chiad ìre aice ann am Peantadh bho Cholaiste-ealain Dhùn Èideann agus MFA bho Sgoil-ealain Ghlaschu. Ag obair le stàlaidhean, dealbhadaireachd, ìomhaighean digiteach, collage, obair-chlò, agus assemblage, bidh i gu tric a’ cruthachadh saothair an taobh a-muigh de dh’ionadan studio air an t-seann nòs, a’ co-obrachadh le daoine eile. Tha Janie air taisbeanadh thall thairis, le greis air mhuinntireas o chionn ghoirid aig CCA Ghlaschu, Tramway, agus Metal Liverpool.
