Edgar Degas was a French Impressionist artist famous for his pastel drawings and oil paintings. His words are a powerful reminder of how the arts connect deeply with human perception, creating space to allow individuals to reflect on their own lives and the world around them.

In 2022, states collectively spent $8 billion to reincarcerate individuals who had already been released. How can we break this costly cycle? The answer lies not in building more prisons, but in investing in rehabilitation. #Blog #ArtsinPrison
