Hello Jean-Marie, thanks for joining and welcome to the Social Arts Network. I love the work you do and hope you meet many appropriate others here in order to help inspire others around the world to keep up the good work.

The network is managed by Escape Artists and is open to everyone. Next step, simply invite any friends you may know of in the arts and any others that may have a participatory interest to join your arts network.

The Social Arts Network uses and is built on a platform similar to other well-known social networks, such as MySpace, Facebook and YouTube. The Network supports both still images and video and has been developed to scale easily to support actively extensive global growth of the network.

Please feel free to share your artistic talent by uploading your photos, videos, music and research papers; and/or also start your own forum or group.

Many thanks,

James Mickelson

What is SANe?

Think of SANe as a meta- network, an adhocracy, for people, organisations and other networks that are working in the field of arts and social action. The only requirement for joining SANe is that you have an interest in the arts as a means for raising awareness: a way of groping towards a social mind.

SANe is supported by the Syd Barrett Fund which, amongst other things, is working towards the creation of the Syd Barrett Social Arts Centre in Cambridge, UK. More...

Our next fundraising event will be a walk from London to Cambridge. Want to come along? Find out more...

Since Jan 19th 2009

SANe, the Social Arts Network, exists to facilitate communication between people who are interested in the development of socially inclusive arts practice, services, exhibitions and productions. The network is managed by

Escape Artists but it is open to everyone. Please feel free to upload your photos, videos, music and research papers, or to start your own forum or group.

Games for Actors and Non-Actors by Augusto Boal

It's a good idea to put your photos into an album as soon as you upload them; it makes them easier to find and gives them a context. And we'd be grateful if everyone could add either a picture of themselves or a company logo to their profile. SANe Books

Visit the SANe bookstore for a great range of books on socially inclusive arts. A percentage of any book sale made through SANe is donated to Escape Artists (UK registered charity no. 1086004) and helps to pay for the costs of managing this network.

Recommend books that you think other SANe members might be interested in.
