Mission Statement

Description

The Dunedin Highland Games & Festival Committee became an established corporation under the laws of the State of Florida filed on October 29, 1975. A Change of Name was filed with the Florida Department of State Division of Corporations on July 1, 2015 to our current name, the Dunedin Scottish Arts Foundation. We are a 501(c)3 organization. The Dunedin Highland Games and Festival Committee, consisting of volunteers and supporters, was formed in 1967 to raise funds to support:

• The City of Dunedin Pipe Band
• The Dunedin High School Scottish Highlander Band
• The Dunedin Highland Middle School Band

We formally changed our name (in 2015) to the Dunedin Scottish Arts Foundation and added funding for the Director of Scottish Arts, the Drumming Director, and additional scholarships. We stay dedicated to preserving the Scottish heritage in our city, as well as promoting all forms of Scottish Arts to include performing and visual arts.

The games and festivals also serve to entertain the public while informing them of the Scottish culture. Corporate and community financial support ensures the continuation of the games into the future for the pleasure of the attendees and the participants.
