Our core objective is to provide community benefits by developing income sources, primarily through food and drinks and socially engaged arts. We seek to encourage every aspect of creativity as important: from everyday household skills to high-end aspirational arts, through to the essential day-to-day skills of managing and promoting accessibility to ALL members of society.
