Our Vision and Values

We deeply value the worldviews, art, ideas and ambitions of young people.

Our vision is for young people in our community to grow up with art and creativity in their lives.

Our mission is to enable young people to set their own creative direction; to experiment and express themselves through art-making, have confidence in their own abilities, take responsibility, build skills for their futures and belong to a creative community as they grow.

Our aims are:

• To provide young people across Lochaber with access to consistent, creative opportunities shaped by their own ambitions and collective decisions.
• To promote the value of creativity in education and support the development of creative practice in educational and community settings.
• To enable young people to gain confidence and skills through engaging with the full breadth of the creative process; from experimentation to presentation, as individuals and in collaboration with peers, adult artists and the wider community.
