Our Vision
We work to create a vibrant arts ecology in Swale and Medway that involves the full diversity of local communities and brings new opportunities to celebrate the area.
Ideas Test is an Action Research Project. This means we research and try different projects and ways of working so that other people in the arts, and beyond, can learn from what we're doing.
Here you can find out how we plan projects using a Story of Change, how we find out how they did through Evaluation, what we learn with our Case Studies, and read our current Business Plan.
