The California Arts Council is a proud supporter of the upcoming Connecting Art and Law for Liberation (CALL), the inaugural art and law festival hosted by UCLA School of Law's Prison Law and Policy Program, Criminal Justice Program, and the Prison Education Program at UCLA on April 12-14. The event seeks to join together artists, attorneys, advocates, legal scholars and community members in a "call" to end mass incarceration by sharing innovative, cutting-edge collaborations at the intersection of art and law, and by uniting communities through various art mediums while simultaneously developing and disseminating new advocacy strategies. The three-day program will feature workshops from California Arts in Corrections coordinating organizations TheatreWorkers Project and the Prison Arts Collective of UC San Bernardino, as well as a presentation from California Arts Council Arts in Corrections staff. The event is free and open to the public. Visit the Call to Action UCLA website for more details and to register. Just Announced!
