This campaign has now closed
Theatre Deli has been a driving force within the arts since 2008, taking over empty spaces in city centres, and creating artistic hubs that support emerging artists, companies and communities whose identities, backgrounds, disciplines or work are underrepresented in theatre.

Situation
Throughout each of our opportunities we focus on removing barriers and increasing access into the arts for underrepresented and marginalised artists, including young, early-career, global majority and disabled artists. We engage with our local communities, reaching those who may not regularly participate in arts and culture. This is crucial in addressing systemic inequalities within the UK arts & heritage industry, where 90% of the arts, culture, and heritage workforce identifies as white.
Solution
• Changing spaces: We change the way people engage with and perceive city centre spaces, filling them with art & making them inclusive and accessible. • Changing perceptions: We support artists, organisations and work that challenge boundaries and remove barriers, especially those underrepresented in the sector • Changing careers: We develop artists by providing transformational opportunities for those who experience barriers to working in the arts to make a step-change in their practice.
