Our philosophy is drawn from a particular mandate for community engagement and development. We treasure participation and what is seen as a creative social process.
We believe the Caribbean can lead the rest of the world by providing a model, an identity marker, for how we all should live as human beings. Our diversity, creativity and dynamism have emerged from our unique experience as a people, though thrown together by forces neglectful of our collective well-being, we by recognition of our history, have stepped ahead of the designs of the old metropoles. The Caribbean continues to forge a path to racial equality, the acceptance of our many contributing cultures/traditions and the fact that, although we are seen as a multitude, we have learned to regard ourselves as one people. There is still work to be done and the arts have a crucial role to play. Our vision for the world, hence, cannot be achieved by our efforts alone, for we are nothing without your involvement.
As of 2020 Arts-in-Action has formulated a simple way for you to participate. We call it Arts for Community Transformation (ACT). ACT seeks to position the arts as a main force in the realisation of a stronger Caribbean while empowering community members as actors in a social process for positive change and development.
