Towns share prize for creativity

Three Scottish towns have won a total of £300,000 after being honoured in the annual Creative Place awards.

Pathhead in Midlothian, Huntly in Aberdeenshire, and Kilmarnock in Ayrshire scooped the windfall in the event, which aims to celebrate communities attempting to run or expand local cultural initiatives. Musical initiatives in Midlothian, the long-running arts events in Huntly and the festivals of Kilmarnock and east Ayrshire secured the prizes in the event run by the national arts funding body, Creative Scotland.
