- Deliver an outreach programme in rural and hard-to-reach communities to engage new audiences.
- Offer support to emerging artists and organisations to help them realise their potential through apprenticeship, mentoring and work experience schemes.
- Support regional and national carnival development by working in partnership with other arts organisations, institutions and creative partners.
