The Dundee Contemporary Arts (DCA) centre has appointed a new director.
Beth Bate will head the organisation following the departure of Clive Gillman, who left to join Creative Scotland earlier this year.
Ms Bate, who was previously director of Great North Run Culture, will join the DCA in January.
She has also worked as a consultant on curatorial and advocacy programmes with the British Museum, and Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums.
Robin Presswood, Chair of DCA, said: “I am delighted that Beth will be joining DCA to lead the organisation at an exciting stage in Dundee’s development.
“As director of Great North Run Culture she developed the organisation’s artistic programme while growing audiences and creating key partnerships regionally and nationally, and the board and I are confident she will bring the same vision and leadership to DCA.”
Originally from Wales, Ms Bate has a BA (Hons) in English with History of Art from Birmingham University and an MA in Museum Studies from Leicester University.
Ms Bate said: “Having long admired the outstanding work of DCA, I am absolutely delighted to join as director.
“The combination of DCA’s dynamic programme of exhibitions, films, printmaking and education work alongside its role as a social hub for Dundee.
“I’m really looking forward to working with the team at DCA and all of our partners to ensure DCA continues to play a central role in cultural Dundee, across Scotland and further afield.”
