Arts at the Old Fire Station (OFS).

Arts at the Old Fire Station (AOFS) is a charity operating an arts centre, comprising a theatre, gallery, and cafe, in George Street, Oxford, England.

History

The charity was formed in an old corn exchange and fire station complex by the Oxford Area Arts Council in 1973. [1] [2] Many theatrical performances have taken place in the venue which for much of its early life was known as the "Old Fire Station Theatre". [3]

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. [4]
