(UK, SC009586) Browse eventsThe Society of Scottish Artists (SSA) was established in 1891 to ‘represent the more adventurous spirit in Scottish Art’. Its aims and objectives have evolved since those beginnings to include the representation of art from other countries and a more open arena for contemporary art activity across Scotland. SSA is an artist-led membership organisation governed by an elected President and elected Council consisting of around twelve members of the Society. Specialist professionals are co-opted onto Council to assist on particular projects. SSA continues its tradition of holding an Annual Contemporary Open Exhibition in the Royal Scottish Academy Gallery (RSA) in Edinburgh. Installation, video, computer and performance art alongside a strong core of works in traditional media result in challenging and invigorating shows. In an art-world where the divide between "new genres" and "traditional media" has rarely been wider, the SSA plays a unique and vital role in bridging the gap. Each year the SSA selects a number of graduating students from the Scottish art college degree shows to exhibit in the Annual Exhibition. SSA recognised the benefits of an integral education programme in its formative years and this groundbreaking policy has continued and strengthened to the present day, involving school groups, artist talks, workshops and gallery tours.

Every young person is unique. Whether a young person is achieving and living within a supportive family or whether they are struggling and face multiple barriers to their progression, they all require support and challenge to become the best they can be. So, we provide both open access and more targeted support.

We provided support to young people who are trying to cope with a difficult experience; for example bereavement, relationship breakdown at home, and bullying. But we also provide support for gifted and talented young people who are unsure about their own aspirations. It is absolutely key to our charity’s work we are independent and impartial of any statutory agency because it means that the activities, information, support, guidance and advice we provide to young people is in their best interests and relevant to their lives, skills and aspirations. We also provide programmes which re-engageme young people, we help them develop employability skills and we work with employers to create work for young people. We help young parents get back in to learning and we provide small grants to young people in or leaving care where a little money can make a big difference. Young people are at the heart of our charity with two young Trustees, in addition to a young people's forum. We have a saying within Medway Youth Trust... "we start at the ends". We know the end results we seek to achieve. We are dedicated to achieving them. We need you to help!
