Saturday, May 13, 5-9pm

West End Arts District and ArtReach invite you to experience creative works from the incarcerated population on death row at San Quentin State Prison in California. The Art of San Quentin exhibit explores the healing and redemptive properties of artmaking. Experiencing the work of these accomplished and resourceful artists helps to break down stereotypes, and initiate dialogue about mass incarceration and capital punishment.

Visitors can explore the visual art exhibit by starting at The Healing Garden. For those who hope to catch the live performance elements, we recommend you sign up for one of the free guided art walks.

The guided art walks will take visitors a short distance along Webster Street to witness visual art, live performance, and film. Reservations are strongly encouraged to participate in the 45-minute guided art walk.

Guided Art Walks: 5:30pm-6:15pm & 6:30pm-7:15pm

RSVP: artofsanquentin.eventbrite.com

Selections of the exhibit will be on display at the Fireside Lounge (http://www.thefiresidelounge.com) in Alameda for two months. While the event is free and open to the public; note that the Fireside Lounge is only accessible for adults 21 years and older.
