Album listening party; Bending the Bars is a groundbreaking musical collaboration between incarcerated artists in South Florida jails and outside producers, the Community Hotline for Incarcerated People (CHIP). Recorded through jail phone lines, and mixed by award-winning producers, the album amplifies the creativity and resilience of people behind bars, transforming isolation into connection and abolitionist action.

These Shining Lives is based on the true story of four women who worked for the Radium Dial Company - a watch factory based in Ottawa, Illinois. This poetic and beautiful little play is a story of survival in its most transcendent sense, and a reminiscence on love, family and time. The play focuses on the women who refuse to allow the company that stole their health to kill their spirits – and highlights their work to protect the lives of the generations who come after them. Directed by Michole Biancosino.
