PEN International and the Artists at Risk Connection (ARC) today condemned the Cuban government’s detention of at least five artists and writers in the aftermath of Hurricane Ian for their participation in peaceful protests that began Sept. 29.  They were detained on Oct. 1 and one of them reportedly suffered injuries in a violent arrest. The organizations called for the immediate release of the artists, and again raised a joint petition with 19 other organizations calling for an end to the repression and violation of the rights of artists and protestors in Cuba.
