Raising the impact
of arts and culture

We back emerging talent and vital institutions to make art visible, inclusive, and transformative for all.


Our beneficiaries


Shaping futures and inspiring possibilities


The arts have the power to transform society. They spark imagination, invite the exchange of ideas, and enrich our collective future. That’s why we champion pioneering, non-commercial artistic projects, with a particular focus on young and emerging artists and the institutions that nurture them.


Our goal is to broaden access to arts and culture, by supporting new work and strengthening inclusive cultural spaces. We focus on expertise, long-term vision, and artistic freedom to help culture thrive, both at the centre and at the edges, where new ideas and creativity begin.


We do this through close partnerships with museums and community organisations, supporting commissions, exhibitions, residencies, and learning programmes. We prioritise fair pay, accessibility, and care for artists and audiences; offer flexible funding that meets real needs; and share what we learn so others can build on it. Our approach is collaborative and long-term, helping ideas grow locally and resonate globally.
