Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All About Crime involves a series of workshops where CFCA artists use their oirginal, nationally acclaimed model program "Telling Stories Through Visuals" to take participants with little or no prior artistic experience through a process in which they relate how crime affects their lives, write about their feelings and experiences, and illustrate their narratives with pictures.  The stories and artwork then become part of a movable mural that is used to educate the public about cirme-related issues to stimulate dialogue and generate positive change.(The program was selected by the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities as one of eight national model programs that successfully combines art with social services to improve people's lives).
