Aberdeen Inspired, the Business Improvement District (BID) organisation behind Nuart, said it was delighted to see two of its 2022 artists receive such global critical acclaim.

Nuart Aberdeen is the only street art festival in Scotland and one of the UK’s leading festivals of its kind. 

Artists from around the globe transform the walls and buildings of Aberdeen city centre with works of art that are free for all to enjoy, 365 days a year. 

Aberdeen Inspired was thrilled with the response in 2022 and has confirmed the street art festival would return later this year.
