Our Mission

As a registered charity we provide a positive, inclusive, and sustainable environment in which to entertain, educate and inspire.

We provide spaces and experiences for people to connect, work, learn, play and enjoy together. We continue to develop our artistic programme and activities to include a wide range of performing arts and film, forming lasting connections and partnerships across our region.

We believe that the arts and culture have the power to change lives, improve well-being, and remind all of us of what connects us as humans.

It’s why we exist. It’s what we do. It’s what we love.

Our Vision

To connect people through arts and culture and inspire future generations to progress our story.

Our Values

  • Create the extraordinary
  • Bring people together
  • Be resilient
