On a recent visit to California State Prison, Los Angeles County, we were thrilled to learn that one of the participants of our event was serving his very last day after almost 23 years behind bars! He said we threw him the best party to celebrate his release 😂. He expressed his wide range of emotions surrounding going home and gave thanks to God and the community that supported him throughout his years. He also shared with us the first thing he was going to do when he walked through the gates.

Aric Patino, member of the Healing Through Art program at California State Prison - Los Angeles County, gave us a look at his latest portrait of poet and activist, @amandascgorman and describes the inspiration behing his amazing work. Interviewer 🗣️: @lamont_tory | Between The Lines
