Escape Artists is an arts charity running pioneering arts programmes in prisons, mental health institutions, with the homeless and in hospices. The Resource Centre has had a long association with the charity including a performance in Kings College Chapel and running a workshop for the BBC. The Resource Centre is currently planning a new joint project with Escape Artists, combining website design and social networking, to be based here at the centre.
