Changing the Narrative: We Are More Than A Number

  • SPEEDWELL projects 630 Forest Avenue Portland, ME, 04101 United States (map)

WE ARE PROUD TO COLLABORATE WITH THE SOUTHERN MAINE WOMEN'S REENTRY CENTER TO TAKE PART IN THE FREEDOM & CAPTIVITY EVENT SERIES.

Join us for a multi-disciplinary performance event that centers the voices of incarcerated and formerly incarcerated women from Maine. The performance and exhibition hope to ignite more energy and efforts around linking the voices of justice-impacted women in an effort to create a national (big dreams!) net of support for women who have lost their freedom and are on the path toward reclaiming it. We hope this event breaks the silence around what is it to be a woman in captivity and a seeker and demander of freedom.

Artists will share poetry, writing, dance, and songs. Our Revere Street Window Gallery will feature visual work including fiber, sculpture, painting, and more. The visual work will be on display through January 2nd, 2022.

Limited Space is available. Attendees must present proof of vaccination and wear a mask. Thank you for your cooperation.
