Working with an archive of images from the Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA) program, this exhibition highlights the transformative role of art in prison rehabilitation. Founded at Sing Sing in 1996, RTA partners with professional artists to offer workshops in theater, dance, music, creative writing, and visual arts. These programs foster critical life skills, helping participants rebuild connections with their families and communities upon release.

The images in this archive capture powerful moments of creative expression, illustrating how art provides a pathway to personal growth and rehabilitation. With a recidivism rate of less than 3%, compared to the national average of 60%, RTA demonstrates that art is a vital tool for healing and transformation.
