an Inclusive Community Conversation
NOVEMBER 19, 2 pm
JOIN US for a dynamic, invigorating discussion about the state of justice, inside and outside the system, inside and outside our own selves, and the powerful promise of the arts to effect change.
Facilitated by Larraine Brown and Norman Kehling of AIMe
AIMe – Artivism in Maine employs the arts and culture as powerful tools to effect social, economic and environmental justice throughout Waldo County and Maine. HIIT (Helping Incarcerated Individuals Transition) is a significant project sponsored by AIMe and founded by Norman Kehling. Mr Kehling was sentenced to forty four years and served thirty years at Maine State Prison, seven of those in solitary confinement. Both education and the arts are important in Mr Kehling’s life as a free man. Most important is his commitment to work for the rights of those who are still incarcerated.
