About

Artsadmin makes art happen. Our vision is to be an arts lab for the 21^st Century for the creation of performance, site-specific and interdisciplinary work, where the innovative, experimental and unusual are nurtured.

We do this by

Discovering and developing artistic talent and supporting artists at all stages of their career
Responding to the creativity of artists and using our expertise to help them realise ambitious ideas
Creating safe and supportive spaces for artistic experiment, risk-taking and development
Being truly collaborative; sharing knowledge and resources and creating meaningful partnerships and networks
Responding to the changing environment we live in; being a leader in the arts for work that addresses the issue of climate change and finding ways to reduce the environmental impact of the arts

As artists continue to question the world, to push boundaries and challenge preconceptions, our role is to help them to do it.

Artsadmin is a registered charity and receives around 50% of its annual operating budget from Arts Council England as a regularly funded organisation. Many of our projects and activities are only made possible through additional support from trusts and foundations and other sources.

We are members of: Live Art UK, the national network of Live Art promoters; ITC (Independent Theatre Council); IETM, the international network for contemporary performing arts; the IMAGINE2020 network, a network of European arts oraganisations looking at arts and climate change and ISAN, the Independent Street Arts Network.
