Please save the date of April 16-17, 2021 for UCLA’s virtual Connecting Art & Law for Liberation (CALL) Festival, a collaboration between the UCLA Prison Education Program, UCLA School of Law’s Criminal Justice Program and the Prison Law & Policy Program. The CALL Festival will connect artists, activists, attorneys, advocates, and scholars for a Virtual Conference featuring innovative collaborations at the intersection of art and the law! We will build community, re-energize and play, while developing visionary strategies to end mass incarceration–with participants from college campuses, community, and carceral spaces.
I’m reaching out to share that we are:
- Currently seeking proposals for workshops, performances, and film/video screenings for the CALL Festival, which are due December 21, 2020. Please click here for more information on how to submit a proposal and feel free to share with your networks!
