Creative Kernow

A Cornwall-based centre for creative arts and industries since 1983, the organisation supports the development of creative communities and businesses in Cornwall and beyond through both established and experimental programmes. Its core focus areas include communities, economy and skills, and hub development, ensuring that its values are embedded across the organisation and reflected in its collaborations with partners, stakeholders, and beneficiaries.

Its mission is to enrich and energise creative communities by producing, distributing, and promoting artistic work. Committed to a sustainable and inclusive future, it places data-driven impact at the heart of its approach while utilising creative technology and media to reach the widest possible audience.

The organisation’s new creative hub, Krowji, is set to become a destination for professional practice and informal learning, offering an annual programme of residencies, research projects, networking, showcasing, and retail events. Specialist facilities will support its core programmes and incubate new ideas, reinforcing its commitment to creating environments where creative communities can thrive, sharing its expertise and fostering new opportunities for cultural growth.
