In this listening session and community workshop, multidisciplinary artist Samora Pinderhughes - the executive/artistic director of The Healing Project - will present excerpts of sound-based works from The Healing Project and will share the processes that the organization has built around sound as a framework of honesty and self-definition.

This work is also accompanied by a capsule exhibition of artistic works created collaboratively by community members of The Healing Project, many of whom are currently & formerly incarcerated. This work is on view throughout The Kennedy Center’s Welcome Pavilion and The Reach. The exhibition in particular features the artists Peter Mukuria aka Pitt Panther (incarcerated in Baltimore) and Keith LaMar (incarcerated in Ohio), and seeks to raise awareness about their struggles for freedom.
