INAUGURAL SHOW

CENTER FOR ART & ADVOCACY: A PRESENTATION OF THE WORK OF NINE JUSTICE-IMPACTED ARTISTS. 01 – 20 AUGUST 2023

Featuring the work of 9 artists, the exhibition celebrates the gallery’s opening and brings together a group of groundbreaking artists impacted by the criminal justice system, whose creative practices are shifting the narrative around mass incarceration.

Founded in May 2023 by Executive Director Jesse Krimes, the Center for Art & Advocacy is the first national artist-led organization dedicated to supporting and mentoring justice-impacted creatives.
