Our Mission: We use the powers of creativity and community to tackle inequality and transform lives.
We use creativity to tackle the inequality in our community, through transformative programmes that unlock people’s potential and strengthen communities. People of all ages come here to make art, make friendships and make change in their own lives, and the world around them.
When we say the word inequality we mean two things:
- People are not having their basic needs met in housing, education, employment, and health
- People are marginalised by class, gender, sexuality, disability, and race.
These multiple, complex disadvantages lead to poor mental and physical health, barriers to education and employment, less chance to be heard, and reduced opportunity to come together and celebrate.
Our vision is for the communities in this area to become recognised for their creative talent and leadership. And for them to no longer be labelled as victims of a system of inequality, but are instead celebrated as powerful makers of creativity and community-led change.
‘I feel better now. If I hadn’t come here I would feel the same as before.’
