### Year Ending: 30 June 2025

Company activities and impact

During the financial year, ZEST Arts Collective CIC delivered a large-scale creative programme and exhibition titled Roadmap, engaging local artists and diverse community members in exploring the future of artists in the city. The programme included a series of community workshops that encouraged creativity in the local area and provided paid opportunities for local artists. We also delivered a mentoring scheme involving 14 artists, who were paid to spend time developing their practice and producing new artworks in collaboration with one another. Alongside this, we expanded our artist network to over 85 members and delivered a year-round programme of artist-led walks, socials, workshops, and visits to cultural sites. Most of this activity was free to access, and the network remains open to anyone who self describes as an artist and is interested in participating. Across the year, we presented two public exhibitions – Roadmap and a members’ exhibition showcasing current work – both of which provided platforms for local artists to share their practice with wider audiences. These activities benefited the community by supporting artists’ professional development, fostering collaboration, and ensuring that creative and cultural experiences remain accessible and inclusive.

Consultation with stakeholders

ZEST Arts Collective CIC’s stakeholders are artists and creative practitioners who form part of the artistic community local to Southampton. This includes members of the ZEST collective, members of our broader artist network, and local creatives more generally, defined as those who either reside in Southampton or have strong connections to artistic and creative activity in the city. We have consulted our stakeholders at multiple points across the year. Artists in our collective and wider network were surveyed using accessible online forms to gather feedback on their interests and priorities for our programme. Additionally, artists who participated in our mentoring scheme were consulted after the project via online video calls to discuss their experiences and provide feedback. In response to this feedback, we adapted our programme to better reflect the needs and interests of participants. For example, the content and structure of workshops and mentoring opportunities were refined based on the suggestions provided, ensuring that activities remained relevant, inclusive, and supportive of professional development for local artists.

Directors' remuneration

Directors received no remuneration for their director duties. Two directors received a total of £21,550 for project related delivery services.

Transfer of assets

No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
