Our aim is to be a key event in Scotland's arts scene, harnessing the power of creativity and community in enriching lives. We are want to:

Celebrate Creativity: By showcasing a diverse range of artistic talent, from emerging local artists to internationally acclaimed figures.

Foster Community: Through engaging with local businesses, volunteers, and residents to create a welcoming atmosphere for all visitors.

Inspire Participation: By offering workshops, talks, and interactive experiences, we aim to make art accessible to everyone, encouraging participants of all ages to explore their creativity.

Preserve Tradition: While embracing innovation, we honour the rich cultural heritage of Pittenweem and the East Neuk, ensuring the arts continue to thrive in this historic setting.

Following research carried out in 2023, there are a number of areas of focus for our future development. These areas of improvement include:

Sustainability - how do we lessen the carbon footprint of the Festival

Community - how do we build stronger relationships within our community and beyond

Diversity - how do we create a broader arts experience, to ensure we are inclusive to all

Experience - how do we address areas such as events, catering and logistics to ensure a seamless approach that satisfies artist, community and visitor expectations.
