The Albert
Lea Art Center is pleased to partner again with the Freeborn County Adult
Detention Center to bring to the community the 2019 On Both Sides of the Bars
art exhibit. There will be approximately
50 pieces of art work consisting of pencil drawings and acrylic paintings from
Jim Dalton’s painting class.
Also featured in the exhibit, will be essays and
stories that the inmates and detainees wrote in the creative writing workshop
headed by volunteer, Carolyn Smith. The
writers come from all over the world and have a variety of skill and
experience. There will be five notebooks
containing the essays and stories.
This art
show will be a fundraiser for the Detention Center’s art program and pieces of
art will be for sale and the proceeds will come back to the program.
