Community Partners in Action exhibit at Russell Library this month!

The 8th Annual Out of Prison, Making Art Exhibition, featuring Recent Artwork from Former Prisoners, runs from September 13 – October 20 on the 2nd floor galler of Russell Library. 
This painting by Nina Robinson is part of the CPA exhibit. 

Since 1875, Community Partners in Action has provided services that promote accountability, dignity and restoration for people affected by the criminal justice system. The Prison Arts Program works within the CT Department of Correction to provide opportunities for creative expression and positive experiences for inmates and the recently released. Exhibitions such as this one offer the public an opportunity to see examples of inmates’ remarkable creativity and their positively-directed energies.
This exhibition continues a collaboration between the Community Partners in Action Prison Arts Program and Russell Library.
