InsideOUT Program Launch and MCI Inmate Art Show

Stonewall Columbus will be hosting a reception and art exhibit opening to launch our new program for LGBTQ inmates and formerly incarcerated individuals. This exhibit will feature art created by inmates at Marion Correctional Institution (MCI). An MCI representative and Stonewall Columbus’ Program Coordinator will share information about InsideOUT and talk about the importance of building community between inmates and their allies on the outside. A video presentation created by InsideOUT participants at MCI will be shown at this event which will offer insight about InsideOUT from inside the walls as well as the difficulties of identifying as LGBTQ in prison. All art sales benefit the Stonewall Columbus InsideOUT program. Read more about InsideOUT here: http://www.stonewallcolumbus.org/programs/insideout
