Recapturing Humanity through the San Quentin Art Program

Showcasing art from April 18 - June 13.

A powerful exhibit featuring works from ten formerly incarcerated San Quentin artists and collaborators connected with this transformative art program.

Inside the confines of San Quentin, the incarcerated learn how art can serve as a cathartic outlet and help guide a journey of self discovery, healing and rehabilitation.

The art program instills a sense of purpose and accomplishment for those struggling to express their feelings, pains and dreams in a positive way. Come listen to the unheard voices of San Quentin artists.
