The Gaelic College has evolved over time into a beautiful modern campus overlooking St. Ann's Harbour. The institution's mission is as follows: "To promote, preserve and perpetuate through studies in all related areas: the culture, music, language, arts, crafts, customs and traditions of immigrants from the Highlands of Scotland.
