At the stroke of midnight on 2 April, the awards for Round Two of the Culture Recovery Fund were announced by Arts Council England and the DCMS. It’s a long and impressive list. We are pleased to see that the Outdoor Arts sector is well represented – we have counted just under 100 companies, organisations or festivals with outdoor performance as a major part of their work.

Congratulations to them all and we hope that the awards go some way towards finding a way forward at this difficult time, but of course we recognise that there will be many others still struggling and we hope that other avenues will open up soon.
