Arts at the Old Fire Station is a charity and social enterprise in the heart of Oxford, offering a range of performances and exhibitions for everyone, support for emerging artists and enterprising ways in which to sustain and develop arts as a business.
We have a Shop selling original artwork, a Gallery with a wide range of exhibitions, a Theatre offering music and drama, a Studio for all kinds of dance and a workshop for artists to make work. We also have space to hire for classes, rehearsals and meetings.
We share the building with Crisis Skylight Oxford - a training centre offering creative and formal learning opportunities to homeless and vulnerably housed people and a dedicated employment service which helps them find and keep jobs. The Crisis Skylight Cafe provides on-the-job training, as well as great city centre food to the wider public.
For more information visit the Arts at the Old Fire Station website.
Shop at the Old Fire Station is stocked with a treasure trove of UK based artists, makers and designers. We support early to mid-career artists and makers, showing their work alongside more established practitioners. We also develop partnerships with several local education establishments to provide retail opportunities for emerging makers and work with Crisis Skylight to provide training opportunities for homeless people within the arts. We're open Tuesday – Saturday, 11 - 6.
