Our Purpose
- We facilitate collaboration, nurture collective leadership and support people to imagine and act together to benefit our communities and place.
- We equip creative practitioners with opportunities, connections, space and tools to strengthen creative communities in Dundee, with the ambition of enabling a more confident and optimistic tomorrow.
- We hold spaces to convene perspectives, striving to improve current conditions and future opportunities for creative practitioners and city residents.
Our team is supported by a resourceful community, grounded in a deep understanding of the city and the strengths, needs and challenges facing creative freelancers, collectives, businesses, workers and students. We exist for the cultural life of the city rather than our own primary agenda.
Four key pillars – Amplify, Connect, Collaborate, Cultivate – guide and inform all that we do, alongside three evolving, intersectional themes: Justice, Wellbeing and Sustainability.
We lead collaborative projects which generate local, national and international opportunities for people and the city – to support Dundee’s strong creative ecology.
