ZEST's mission is to foster creative growth in both the local artistic community and the diverse communities local to Old Northam Road.
We honour our space, our Southampton roots and uphold a sense of pride in our city: building its grassroots arts scene and actively advocating for artists in its future.
By connecting with local communities through workshops, events and collaborative projects, we facilitate access to the arts, create a sense of belonging in art spaces and build long-lasting relationships with local people.
