We believe Ryde is a town brimming with creativity.

We want to help cultivate an environment that enables individual artists and art organisations to flourish and to encourage budding young creatives to grow in confidence.

We want to contribute to the cultural wellbeing of those who live in, work in and visit our town and ensure that people of all ages and walks of life can participate in and enjoy access to the Arts. 

We are a local Arts organisation striving to grow cultural activity, strengthen cultural networks and support creative professionals within the town of Ryde. We work with creative people across all artistic genres and partner with a wide range of local businesses and organisations to ensure we have a broad reach.

Each year we produce a major creative project for Ryde, commissioning emerging artists at the start of their careers to create new work. We also produce annual one-off events such as Green Garlands and Seedy Sunday, as well as supporting other local cultural events such as Harp on Wight and the Poetry Tea Party.
