Creative Conferences at Birnam Arts

Planning and holding business meetings of any size requires a balance between attention to detail and flexibility of thought to consider what might be. At Birnam Arts, we see our creative canvas of spaces, set amongst the hills of Perthshire. With easy access from the Central Belt and the North, we are the perfect place to host your next business meeting or conference.

In the past two years we’ve been able to take a little time to upgrade many of the technical specifications of the Auditorium, making it a better venue for your meeting for between 30 people in a boardroom style, to 180 in theatre style meeting. We can also stream your meeting out to those unable to attend in person, helping you leverage your costs across a wider audience.  

At Birnam Arts, we bring a creative approach to all our business streams and our meeting spaces are no different we know that space, light, and clear air encourage creative thinking. Our meeting room is getting a new look with writable walls to help you creatively express your ideas that are larger than a piece of flipchart paper … to help you see the bigger picture right in front of you and work out those pesky issues. We also have flipcharts available for those conversations that need to keep moving forward.

We’d love to speak with you soon about your next off-site business meeting or small conference. With more than a decade of experience in our beautiful building, our team looks forward to working with you to create the right vibe for your next meeting.

We'll work with you to createjust the right vibe for your meeting.

This is a lovely light and welcoming building with a cafe and library during the day and some really excellent concerts and shows of all genres mostly in the evening. It's an intimate space but with capacity for several hundred people and tends to be competitively priced. It relies on volunteer support and is an excellent community hub.

Birnam Arts has been host to great memories and moments, from dancing my heart out at weddings to speaking at conferences to enjoying wonderful music ... this place does it all and is an important hub. We look forward to the time we can enjoy BA to its full once again.

Funding Partners

Our Impact

Read about the difference we made and impact we had on the communities we serve

Impact Report 25/26

We are incredibly thankful for the support of our important funding partners, without whom we wouldn’t be able to maintain and update our beautiful building and continue to offer a strong range of activities.

Their funding allows us to keep expanding how we deliver on the two goals of Birnam Arts. They allow us to expand our programming in the visual and performing arts for the people of Perthshire, and to keep Birnam Arts relevant in the competitive world of business meetings, which in turn supports our community and arts programming.

 

It is clear that funding support for charities comes in many shapes and sizes, and our community members are not just those who live in the nearby area but many who live and work across much of Perthshire.

Aberfeldy-based Macintyre Wealth Management have included Birnam Arts as a recipient of one of their 12 days of Christmas gifts. In 2020, the gift was a new ballet barre, which has gratefully been used throughout the past months through our students of all ages. Their funding in 2021 provided a new guillotine, which is used by visiting artists with the production of zines and booklets. Staff will also have a chance to use it for things such as workshop preparation, the production of activity sheets for Beatrix Potter, as well as inhouse creation of posters for upcoming events and exhibitions.

More recently, we've received support that specifically offsets the cost of some of our print and advertising costs.

And of course, from time to time we gratefully benefit from legacy gifts.
