You might have often found yourself making small talk with a stranger and either saying or hearing that Dundee is a great city because it’s ‘not too big and not too small‘. But after years of connecting and amplifying creative people and activities in the city, we can’t help but to see a Dundee is both tiny and enormous in different ways.

Big developments are changing the city’s landscape and enriching its creative life. But much smaller projects are also consistently providing Dundee with unique beauty and value. From; visual arts, video games, design, exhibitions, craft, performance, comics, photography, music, literature, community art, co-working spaces, history, cinema and so much more, it seems like the big and small wheels of Dundee’s creativity are turning and transforming it into the infinitely rich cultural hub we’ve come to love.

As this fertile cultural ground grows in significance, we have decided to invest in creating connections and collaborations within. Would you like to join us?
