An Introduction to Working with the Arts in Prisons, Cambridge,
May 19
 
Escape Artists will be running a one day training workshop that has been designed to provide artists and other interested people with an introduction to the issues involved in delivering arts based activities to imprisoned adults and young people.
 
Structured exercises have been created to engage and involve participants in an exploration of what it means to work within the penal system. As such this workshop provides an invaluable introductory experience for anyone interested in working in this sector.
   
The workshop is facilitated by Paul Malcolm, an ex-prisoner who, since his release, has spent 10 years working with drama in prisons and theatres throughout Europe.
 
Cambridge, May 19 11.30am to 5.30pm
 
Cost: £60 More information
 
 
New Technology and its Application in Disability Arts
 
For the last 12 months the company has been working with the Department of Engineering at Cambridge University to develop new ways of enabling severely disabled people to communicate through music.
 
The fruits of this research are now finding practical application in Escape Artists' music workshops with patients at Sue Ryder Care. These workshops will culminate in a performance involving Sue Ryder Care patients at the Royal Opera House later this year.
 
If you would like to find out more about this new technology, try it for yourself, and discover how it can be utilised in a wide variety of settings, then join us at the Bishop's Palace, Ely where Simon Gunton, Escape Artists' Musical Director, supported by John Hall from Cambridge University, will be running an interactive demonstration with residents from Sue Ryder Care.
