Welcome

Oxfordshire is a beautiful and diverse county offering superb countryside, lively market towns and villages and with a world class city at its heart. We're a modern county, a global leader in science, technology and biomedical research, with over 1000 years of rich and fascinating history.

Oxford Inspires is the cultural development agency for Oxfordshire. We create new opportunities for arts and heritage organisations, nurture new festivals and spectacular events and work to engage as many people as possible in exciting and enjoyable cultural experiences, raising Oxfordshire's profile as a cultural destination within the UK and internationally. We collaborate with cultural organisations across Oxfordshire to support their ambitions and to help them to reach a wider audience.

We work closely with our founding partners Oxfordshire County Council, Oxford City Council, The University of Oxford, Oxford Brookes University and Arts Council England. We are also grateful for the support of Oxfordshire's business community through our Corporate Members.
