INVERCLYDE CULTURE COLLECTIVE

Inverclyde Culture Collective Lead Partners are:

*Inverclyde Council (Lead)

*CVS Inverclyde – who support, promote and represent Inverclyde’s third sector organisations.

*RIG Arts - a multi-award winning socially engaged arts charity based in Inverclyde

*Beacon Art Centre - a contemporary theatre and arts venue in the heart of Inverclyde

*The Wyllieum - a gallery in Greenock celebrating the work and legacy of artist George Wyllie

*Creative Recovery Inverclyde - an arts strand nestled within the heart of Your Voice’s Lived

*Theatre School of Scotland (TSOS) – who offer a variety of performing arts classes in Greenock

Our proposal builds on the success of our previous Inverclyde Culture Collective (ICC 2021-2023) to create 18 months of new activity from June 2026 devised from the Inverclyde Arts & Creativity Action Plan (2024-2029). Our overall focus will be an exploration of our “Creative Health” – a strong thread that emerged through previous delivery, leading to the inclusion of a “Creative Health Statement” within the “Inverclyde Health & Social Care Strategic Commissioning Plan” (2024 – 2027). We will also explore themes linked to the Climate Crisis, including climate anxiety.

This project will create paid opportunities for both salaried and freelance Creative Practitioners to engage with communities that have low arts engagement. Inverclyde Culture Collective will provide both emerging and established artists with the opportunity to push the boundaries of their own practice and look for radical solutions to sensitively collaborate and make work with local communities.
