Background
Imagination Our Nation
Imagination Our Nation is a collaborative, national, participatory arts project, which uses art to explore the changing world and looks at how communities can positively embrace the future.
It is a national conversation about innovation and change, engaging with the youth of today and encouraging them to become champions, to achieve their personal best and to fulfil their potential, whatever that may be.
The aim of ION is to leave a legacy of ownership, engagement, collaboration and acceptance of change by engaging the youth of today as the citizens of the future.
In 2009, 23 partners engaged over 9,000 participants, and 17 champions appeared at 57 events reaching an audience of over 3 million across the UK; Imagination Our Nation has also won the Cultural Olympiad Inspire Mark for two years running.
