For the 2016 Inside Out Dorset Festival, Activate Performing Arts presents 10 days of high quality, large scale outdoor theatre, dance, installation, and performance across Dorset, Bournemouth and Poole.

Our support goes towards eight commissions that make up a temporary installation and performance trail at Hengistbury Head, Bournemouth and are a key part of the Festival. Each of the selected artists is supported across the year as they develop their work with input from experts on the environment, heritage and wildlife.
