Sept. 29: Exhibit reception for “Outsider Art: Work from New Folsom Prison, 1994-2014,” curated by Anna Plemons

Anna Plemons, Dept. of English, has brought to WSU an exhibit of prisoners’ art created through California’s “Arts in Corrections” (AIC) program. AIC is state funded and offers to prison inmates professional art instruction in visual, performing, literary, and media.

Plemons studies prison writing programs and has taught creative nonfiction at New Folsom near Sacramento since 2009.

A reception opens the exhibit today from 5:00-6:30 p.m. in the Bundy Reading Room in Avery Hall.  The public is invited to this free event. The common reading stamp will be available.

The exhibit will be on display through February 2016. Faculty wishing to arrange a class visit are invited to contact the Dept. of English.
