Keynote speaker François Matarasso will consider the historical context of participatory arts in criminal justice settings and Anne Peaker’s contribution to this. He will go on to consider art’s capacity for the kind of reflection that helps individuals grow, and make the case for its importance in terms of human rights and power.

The event will include a performance of an arts project developed in criminal justice settings, a Q&A and networking drinks. Tickets cost £10.
