Health, Quality of Place, Resilience: Indiana University Prison Arts Initiative

Project abstract

The Indiana University Prison Arts Initiative (IUPAI) will begin as an outreach and research partnership between the IU Arts & Humanities Council and the IU Center for Rural Engagement. The primary goal of IUPAI is to send IU instructors into prisons and administer 16-week, college-level classes. In the pilot semester (fall 2022), we will be administering one arts- and skill-focused course to a class of 12-15 students. The initial class will be focused on the fundamentals of visual art and will be administered at Putnamville Correctional Facility in Greencastle, IN.
