The ReEntry Lab is an organization working to connect writers and other artists leaving incarceration to a community that’s ready to receive them.This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.There is a Facebook event (link coming soon), or you can add it to your Google Calendar or download an ICS file to add it to other calendars, but you can also just show up!
