Welcome to the Fifth Annual Inmate Art Show!
Hopewell Church presents the Fifth Annual Inmate Art Show featuring the artwork from inmates at Coal Township State Correctional Institution.
As in past years, 50% of the funds raised from the sale of the art goes back to the artists to purchase additional art supplies, as well as help support their families. At the artists' request, the remaining 50% is donated to local and global organizations providing shelter, food, home repair, education, job creation, and mentorship, which provides an increased sense of worth and connection for the artists.
This year, the organizations receiving a portion of the funds raised include:
-
Good Samaritan Services in Lancaster and Chester Counties, PA
-
Good Works in Coatesville, PA
-
The Well After-school Program in Downingtown, PA
-
Coatesville Kids To College in Coatesville, PA
-
Hope Point in Chester, PA
-
Mosaic in South Africa
-
Prison Ministry and Restorative Justice Program at Drakenstein Prison in South Africa
-
Hopewell Training Center in Haiti
On behalf of our brothers at Coal Township, thank you for your participation and generosity.
