“Heritage is our legacy from the past, what we live with today, and what we pass on to future generations.” — UNESCO
What we do
Developing interdisciplinary creative communities and practices, through research and knowledge exchange, exploring the value of culture and heritage in all our lives.
- Creative Health
- Creative Cultures
- Creative Industries
- Creative Heritage
- Creative Lives
We connect people through inclusive creative practices, critical research and collaboration that offers potential for belonging, renewed understandings of ourselves and others, aiming for positive change.
Vision
We believe heritage lives in the everyday — in landscapes, languages, creative expressions and collective memory. Through curiosity driven approaches to society and creativity, history and humanities, AI, digital and creative industries, we not only preserve but transform heritage into new forms that speak to contemporary life. Whether you’re a student, academic researcher, artist, community partner, or policymaker — the Suffolk Centre for Culture and Heritage is a welcoming place to build our cultural futures.
