The Weight of Time: A Panel Discussion

Join us for an engaging panel discussion exploring the transformative power of art within the Philadelphia prison system. Featuring artists and advocates from Mural Arts Philadelphia’s groundbreaking program at SCI Phoenix, panelists will offer a behind-the-scenes look at the history and evolution of the program at SCI Phoenix/Graterford, the experiences of artists who have worked directly with incarcerated individuals, and the lasting impact of public art as a vehicle for healing and restorative justice. Attendees will also learn how how they can support the artists and the program moving forward.

Panelists:

• Jane Golden, Executive Director, Mural Arts Philadelphia
• Eric Okdeh, Artist
• Cody Stuhltrager, Artist
