Join us at Fox Field on Thursday, September 2nd at 6:30pm for the Freedom & Captivity public launch party: an evening of community, art, and abolition!

During the event, we will project works from the Art on Abolition online exhibition while enjoying 'Songs of Freedom & Captivity,' a mixtape curated by Samuel James. There will also be speakers, organizations tabling about their work, and ample opportunities to get involved as we kick-off this 3-month initiative across the state.

Speakers will include Indigo Arts Alliance’s Co-Founders Marcia and Daniel Minter, Skye Gosselin of Maine Youth Justice, Bobby Payzant of Maine Prisoner Advocacy Coalition - MPAC, Michael Kebede of the ACLU of Maine, and performances by Ali Ali and Myles Bullen.

Tabling organizations will include the Maine ACLU, Maine Youth Justice, Maine Inside Out, Maine Prisoner Advocacy Coalition, Maine People's Housing Coalition, the Maine DSA and Maine Access Points. PLUS Gateway Community Services will be offering COVID-19 vaccines and testing on-site!

We’ll see you there!
