We believe Newquay deserves access to high-quality art, creativity, and cultural experiences that enhance wellbeing, inspire collaboration, and create opportunities for investment and sustainable growth in our town.

Our mission is to provide access to inclusive, engaging and inspiring creative activities for everyone. To do this, we deliver a rolling programme of workshops, exhibitions, events and pop-ups at venues around Newquay. We work with professional artists from all disciplines (based in Cornwall and beyond) to deliver a vibrant schedule of activities which are accessible to people of all backgrounds, ages and abilities.
