A society in which every person can engage with the educative, social and life-affirming benefits of the visual arts.
Our vision is to widen access to the visual arts, to support the diversity of contemporary art practice and encourage access and participation from a wide range of audiences, focusing on those underserved by the arts, education systems and society as a whole
The visual arts are an unparalleled way to empower, inspire, level up and connect society’s most excluded and vulnerable, raising aspirations, building self-esteem, reducing isolation and enhancing mental health and wellbeing.
Art has always been a soft power that enables greater understanding of society's most complex issues and those marginalised by them. We believe wider understanding of the visual arts will lead to more empathetic decision making. We host and organise art exhibitions, workshops, screenings, talks and work alongside our visitors to create films, artworks and opportunitiesÂ
Sustainability is at the core of our project, practice and promise, from the workshops, exhibitions, screenings we hold to the buildings we bring back to life that deaden and darken the high streets, dampening community spirits.
