Helping support and grow Dumfries and Galloway’s artists, creative practitioners and organisations.
DGU has developed Creatives Unlimited to support and enhance the sustainability and resilience of the region’s creative professional practitioners and arts organisations. Dumfries and Galloway has a long-acknowledged vibrant and talented creative community and Creatives Unlimited has been designed to ensure it supports and connects individuals and organisations working across all art-forms.
Working collaboratively, we aim to raise ambition, stimulate growth and increase the capacity of individual artists and organisations to help fulfil their potential. Funded by Creative Scotland, The Holywood Trust, and Dumfries and Galloway Council, Creatives Unlimited consists of an initial year-round, region-wide programme of support, training, mentoring, guidance, artists’ resources and networking events.
Creatives Unlimited has three key strands:
1. Growing Leaders – nurturing existing and emerging creative leaders
2. Growing Ambition – stimulating artistic ambition and building capacity
3. Growing Visibility – increasing the visibility of our creative sector and its impact regionally, nationally and internationally
The programme will play an important part in achieving our ambition of growing Dumfries and Galloway’s creative community and to widen its impact and benefits for our communities, visitors and creative practitioners.
