April 6 – Art and Imagination Inside Prisons
This conversation will explore art-making inside the prison industrial

April 13 – Freedom-Making in an Age of Mass Incarceration
This session features a panel discussion about what freedom-making means within the deeply carceral context of contemporary America. A Q&A will follow the moderated conversation. REGISTER HERE.
