Welcome to DGyoUth!
DGU commissioned The Articulate Cultural Trust to develop a Youth Arts Framework for Dumfries and Galloway, to better understand current provision and to seek recommendations to help make youth arts in the region the best that it can be.
As a result of this, DGU appointed two Youth Arts Advocates, Catriona McGhie and Lauren McDougall to help develop the Youth Arts Strategy Framework and establish an accompanying identity of DGU, catered and directed towards young creative practitioners in Dumfries and Galloway, DGyoUth.
