We are pleased to announce that the Prisons Foundation has been chosen by a blue ribbon panel as a Mayor's Arts Award Finalist in the category of Innovation in the Arts. The panel was impressed with the work done by the Prisons Foundation in allowing men and women in prison to pursue the arts and their educational development, its publishing a stunning newsmagazine Art for Justice, and its sponsorship of the Prison Art Gallery in downtown Washington. The gala will feature headliner entertainment. Whether we are chosen to receive this prestigious award, we are very proud of the recognition that being nominated has given to the more than two million men and women in prison. Following the awards ceremony, you are invited to a free reception at the Prison Art Gallery, 1600 K Street NW, Suite 501, Washington, DC. Please RSVP Carolyn@PrisonsFoundation.org or call 202-393-1511.
