As well as its own commercial income (through Watershed Trading), Watershed Arts Trust is funded by national and regional arts funders. A 2010 report for the International Futures Forum describes the Watershed as "a creative ecosystem, operating in many different and overlapping economies," which is "pushing the creative boundary" by fostering both the invention and consolidation of new work.
