Ongoing Activities
Our events, explorations, festivals and projects have received strong community support since we began in 2007. We believe the arts can stimulate creativity, improve health and wellbeing, and increase pride and confidence in the individual and wider community, combatting rural isolation and social deprivation.
Permanent Arts Hub
We aim to establish a permanent Arts Centre in Cupar, in collaboration with other community groups, which would serve and reflect the vibrancy and rich, culturally significant life and history of Cupar and our surrounding area.
