An Arts Centre that is future-looking, dynamic and fleet-footed: co-designing and delivering ambitious and high-quality arts events and activities with Milton Keynes artists and communities in their spaces and on their terms in order to:

1. Inspire and bring moments of joy to Milton Keynes’ residents by enabling them to realise their own creative potential.

2. Be fully inclusive and diverse, actively seeking to address potential barriers to engagement in the arts in order to ensure people from all backgrounds feel welcome and represented in everything we do.
‍
3. Encourage pride in place by celebrating the distinctiveness of Milton Keynes’ social, natural, and built environment through art.
‍
4. Build, connect and revitalise communities in Milton Keynes through place-based and collaborative approaches to creative programming.

5. Position artists at the heart of our work, connecting them with communities across MiltonKeynes, promoting opportunities for skills development and employment, supporting risk-taking and celebrating innovation.

6. And to do the above in ways that promote ethical and sustainable practices, pointing the way to a better shared future.
