Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design

27 September 2026

At one point, the largest art school in Scotland, Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design is the creative heart of the University of Dundee, and has been producing outstanding graduates for over 100 years. Comprised of two complex, contrasting buildings, the school itself is an extraordinary architectural time capsule, and as it has grown to accommodate increasing student numbers, the buildings have morphed to follow bold new architectural ideas. Housing an astonishing range of creative facilities largely hidden from public view, Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design – or DJCAD, as it is more commonly referred to – is as extraordinary on the inside as it is on the outside.

Dundee Historic Environment Trust is an independent charitable organisation, supported by Dundee City Council and Historic Environment Scotland. The venue is our city centre office. We provide grant assistance towards the appropriate repair of historic buildings in Dundee city centre and towards projects that provide opportunities to learn about and enjoy Dundee’s historic built environment, particularly community heritage projects. The Trust also provides best practice advice on the maintenance and repair of historic buildings. We work partnership with other organisations to deliver events, talks and workshops and we contribute to the Dundee Heritage Walk Programme.

Dundee Rep and Scottish Dance Theatre sits at the cultural heart of Dundee as a centre of creative excellence. The Organisation looks outwards, creating and delivering work for local, national and international audiences, with learning at the heart. As a leading force in Scottish theatre, Dundee Rep Theatre has created a number of award-winning and award-nominated productions, including the world premiere of Let the Right One In, The Cheviot, The Stag and The Black, Black Oil, the Scottish premiere of Pulitzer Prize-winning August: Osage County, the world premieres of new musicals No Love Songs and Oor Wullie and the 80th Anniversary season world premiere of Peter Arnott’s Tay Bridge. Over the course of nine decades, Dundee Rep and Scottish Dance Theatre has been at the heart of performance in Scotland, and grown into a world-class organisation, with two artistic forces based in Dundee, travelling to and reaching the rest of the world.
