About us
Organization
Outdoor Arts Italia ETS is the national network dedicated to public performing arts. We are born from the shared experience of artists, programmers and cultural operators. We work, both in Italy and abroad, to connect, support and grow theater, music, circus and dance that develop languages for public spaces.
We believe in art that meets people where they live, transforming squares, streets and urban spaces into places of accessible, participatory, and context-aware culture.
Our mission is to generate concrete opportunities for the sector. How? Through capacity building training and professionalization, promotion and touring, international networks, project support, political actions for the sector aimed at improving working conditions and recognition.
