Our Partners 

Hull has long been a place of inspiration for artists and innovators, which has no doubt influenced and enabled the cultural renaissance currently taking place in the city.

Hull is rediscovering its voice, redefining itself globally as a culturally-rich and diverse city, and a place of welcome, sanctuary and opportunity. We will continue to contribute significantly towards the transformation of the city and its communities.

Partnership working is central to realising the longer-term ambitions of the city. Our work with local partners not only enriches what we do but supports a much broader city-wide ambition. We also work with multiple social enterprises and community groups sharing skills and increasing access to the arts.

The support of our partners and sponsors has never been more fundamental to the success of Freedom Festival Arts Trust. 

We are constantly driven by the pursuit of excellence in all we do, reflecting the aspirations of our two major funders - Arts Council England and Hull City Council - and our wider sponsors, funders and supporters.  Our Friends continue to play a crucial role in helping us realise our ambitions.

We are proud to be one of Arts Council England's National Portfolio Organisations, regarded as a leader in the field of outdoor arts.
