2015 Art and Change Grant – $2,500

  • Neighborhood: North Philadelphia
  • Change Partner: Lillian Dunn, Village of Arts and Humanities
  • Discipline: Multidisciplinary
  • Social Change / Intent: Feminism

Faith will create a hand-bound resource guide by and for women living in halfway houses. The guide will offer information and tips meant to ease the process of reentry for formerly incarcerated women. It will also include art and poetry by the halfway house residents, interviews with women who have successfully reentered, and guided activities to keep users organized and in a peaceful state of mind. Faith aims to heal, unite, and empower women who have been oppressed all their lives. She hopes that through the act of turning disposed paper products into newly functional pieces of paper, these women will re-discover their own value, as well as the possibilities for self-transformation.
