Artists
Are you an artist local to Glasgow or Scotland?
Come and showcase your craft with Scotties in the City, by designing and decorating one of our large Scotties.
Get Involved
We’re calling all artists to take part in Scotties in the City 2026.
We have up to 50 giant, blank Scotties, and we can’t wait to see them brought to life.
The trail will go live on 18 June 2026 for 8 weeks, after which the Scotties will be auctioned to raise vital funds for Maggie’s.
If you’d like the chance to design a Scottie, please register your interest below and we will send you the artist’s pack with more information and inspiration when it’s time to apply.

Artist benefits
As part of the Scottie fun, there will be a painting space for you to get together with fellow artists to design your Scottie dogs.
Artists will also receive free entry to our farewell weekend event and our exclusive auction of the Scotties after the trail closes.
Here’s what some artists have said about being involved in a Wild in Art trail:
“I absolutely enjoyed each trail. It was so much fun and so well organised. I have made lifelong friends and loved every minute.”
– Charlotte Cope
“I’ve made a living with my paint brush for 45 years now. Having retired, I didn’t want that experience to go to waste. Through Wild in Art, I have used that experience and my artistic ability to raise money for worthwhile causes, which I find both exciting and humbling in equal measure.”
– Pauline Paterson
