Behind Bars (USA) |
ART BEHIND BARS was started
in June, 1994 by Lynne Vantriglia. An artist
herself, Lynne has always believed that everyone
has some creative vein within themselves that
can be tapped, for the joy of creativity as
well as for art's therapeutic value. With
that in mind, she began an art program for
women in the Monroe County Detention Center.
The 2-hour art sessions are only for inmates
with good conduct. One of the goals of this
program is to complete artwork that when sold
raises money for other organizations in the
community and helps to promote awareness of
ART BEHIND BARS. |
