Sesnon Speak Up: Revolutionary Greetings!
May 10, 2021 5-6:00 p.m. (Register here)
We will write to our friend Tim Young, the person behind the Solitary Garden at UC Santa Cruz, a participatory public sculpture and garden project. Tim is wrongfully convicted and currently on Death Row in San Quentin State Prison. He is currently partaking in the appellate process as a means of proving his innocence and regaining his freedom. In these events, we will read Tims letters, hear his poetry in his own voice, and discuss together why our efforts to connect with people in prison are important.Please join us in our future events around art, prisons, and justice to continue to build community despite that which separates us.
By writing and connecting with people who are in prison, we resist the isolation that incarceration of all forms creates.
-Survived & Punished Project
Revolutionary Greetings! is co-presented by the Institute of the Arts and Sciences and the Mary Porter Sesnon Art Gallery.
