First Friday Unplugged: Art, Music & Poetry Without Chains
August 7, 2015 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
On August 7, we are hosting a First Friday, Lancaster, event, “Art Without Chains.”
This event will kickoff a 2-month exhibition of artwork that highlights the intersectional issues of gender injustice and mass incarceration — the art is part of a collection of portraits and narratives curated by Chicago-based activists Mariame Kaba and Rachel Caidor, and paintings by Mary DeWitt. Co-curators Mariame and Rachel focus on women of color who have been incarcerated due to self-defense and the campaigns that demanded their freedom. Mary DeWitt’s paintings narrate the lives of women serving life sentences without parole in Pennsylvania
