COVID-19 may have halted visitation at Pelican Bay State Prison, but instructors with the Arts In Corrections Program are still able to reach their students.
Six months after classes transitioned to paper correspondence, 13 students will give Del Norters a glimpse of their creative side. Hosted by the Del Norte Association for Cultural Awareness, Art From the Inside will consist of 22 framed pieces and will be on display at the Del Norte County Courthouse from Jan. 14 through March 3.
