Jerry’s Car Barn

Jerry will appear at the Charity event on December 3rd in the “Portland Art Museum,” along with the Designed Conviction team. All the proceeds will go to support people impacted by incarceration, where most of them will go towards purchasing Christmas presents for the children of the incarcerated.

Letter from the Editor

If you have participated in our art contest, you should be excited. This year in collaboration with X Con Inc, we will be purchasing Christmas presents for children of the incarcerated with proceeds from the Exhibit.

2022 Annual Art Exhibit

Every show will promote the artist’s work and be dedicated to supporting a cause by working with a charity. As the community evolves, we will be able to provide more opportunities.

You can earn parole, even as a lifer, but it requires the hardest work of your life every single day. You must dig deep, find the darkness inside, and rid yourself of it. You must search out the things you buried and hid away and bring them to the surface so you can face them and overcome them.

We need your help

The only limits a person has are the ones that they place on themselves, and we are striving to continue to place our faith in God that he will guide our steps as we venture into the unknown and place the right people and tools
