Background
History
The charity was formed in an old corn exchange and fire station complex by the Oxford Area Arts Council in 1973. Many theatrical performances have taken place in the venue which for much of its early life was known as the "Old Fire Station Theatre". The homelessness charity, Crisis Skylight Oxford, has shared the space, co-located with Arts at the Old Fire Station which manages the venue, since 2011. Here they help by offering training to the homeless.
