To add context to Studio B Art Gallery's exhibit "Prison Art and Experience," former inmate Joe Romeri reflects on his own prison experience and the challenges of re-entry to life beyond the bars. Joe urges second chances to non-violent inmates sentenced to lifetime terms who work hard to rehabilitate--suggesting that the purpose of prison is not terminal punishment but rehabilitation toward helping the incarcerated pursue productive futures in society. He offers insights into the challenges and accomplishments of those who become accomplished artists during their terms.
