sruth-mara has four core aims:

– to develop ambitious, high quality new creative projects that combine an international outlook with strong roots in Hebridean and Gaelic culture.

– to facilitate partnerships and collaborations between Lewis-based artists/organisations and artists/organisations from elsewhere.

– to work in partnership with our local community.

– to establish an inspiring new space for artist residencies.

Thank you to An Lanntair, Comhairle nan Eilean Siar, Ionad Hiort and Uig Community Centre for supporting this project, and to poet Peter Mackay for helping to find the right name.

sruth-mara was founded with support from Creative Scotland.
