Koestler Arts in prison
Episode description
Sally Taylor is the Chief Executive of Koestler Arts, a prison arts charity. They aim to help prisoners, and other detained individuals, lead more positive lives by motivating them to participate in the arts. They currently have their annual exhibition on in Southbank London until 18 December 2022 which showcases work created by people in prison or other places of detention. The exhibition is presented by hosts who have lived experience of being in prison. Sally tells us about the exhibition, some stories about how the Koestler Arts have positively impact the lives of many people and she shares a wonderful poem with us written by an entrant to the Koestler Awards.
