“create, inspire, educate”

Unity Arts Trust has a mission. It wants to build a dynamic and thriving community of artists and craftspeople in Chichester, whose creativity, skill and ambition reach out into the wider community providing pleasure and inspiration – to learn and to practice.

In a recessionary climate we believe that Art and Craft can provide something more than the personal satisfaction the practitioner obtains or its financial worth. We believe:

• Creativity can enhance the way we experience the world by presenting new and exciting interpretations of reality.
• Art can encourage debate, inviting us to question what we see and whether our interpretation is valid. In this way we may be moved to explore the nature of the world that we, as individuals, experience.
• Above all, art and craft can bring joy and pleasure into our lives, and the Trust is keen to do all it can to broadcast its enthusiasms.

Unity Arts Trust and its artists resident in Unity Studios are already beginning to channel their creativity to the Chichester community through a variety of projects and ‘open days’. We hope you will share our vision. Come and join us.
