Prison Choral Communities: Building a Place of Refuge and Release

In this session, the presenters discuss their work establishing, leading, and managing choirs within the American prison system. Topics include the social need for such work, the mechanics of running a choir in prison, and the effect that the choir has on the participants. Learn how to work within the correctional system, how you can make a difference in the lives of many people, and how to make choral excellence happen in an environment where it is desperately needed.
