from Holiday Cards to Prisoners!! People’s Paper Co-op and Decarcerate PA
[November 18th 6pm-8pm
Temple Contemporary 2001 N 13th St, Philly]
Please join the People’s Paper Co-op and Expungement Project Decarcerate PA and Temple Contemporary for a rare night of paper making, letter writing, and reflections from former prisoners and criminal justice reform activists.
Hear amazing speakers, make paper, and send holiday cards for prisoners to mail to their families and friends!
The People’s Paper Co-op has been working with Temple students and community members to create hundreds of handmade blank paper cards. During the event we will be packaging these cards and sending them to prisoners across Pennsylvania. These cards can be used by prisoners to send something special, something that took many hands and a transformative process to make, to their friends or family members. This will create points of exchange across the state while acting as a vehicle for bringing students, former prisoners, and community activists together to discuss these issues.
