Without Walls is a network of over 35 organisations that brings the best in outdoor arts to people in towns and cities across England. Since its formation in 2007, Without Walls has developed and toured over 200 new shows both in the UK and internationally across 22 countries.

• We commission outdoor shows of the highest quality that push the boundaries of what outdoor arts can be. Each year, we present a programme of new work that premieres at our Artistic Directorate festivals. These shows go on to tour across our wider network.
• We support experienced artists that have been working within the outdoor arts sector for many years, as well artists creating outdoor work for the first time. 
• We also provide financial support for the research and development of new work, as well as professional and creative development opportunities.
• The Without Walls programme tours across the network nationally and internationally, contributing to England’s position as a global leader in outdoor arts.
• Many of our partners work in areas of low arts engagement and pioneer new forms of creative engagement with and for their communities. From the East End of London, to the countryside of rural Cheshire – Without Walls’ work finds audiences far and wide.

Without Walls is funded by Arts Council England as a National Portfolio Organisation.
