Join us for Jazz for Justice, a performance by internationally acclaimed musician Wynton Marsalis, who has generously donated his talent to support the astoundingly effective work of Hudson Link for Higher Education in Prison.
The performance takes place at the Episcopal Church of the Heavenly Rest under Michael Pendry’s Les Colombes (The Doves) exhibit, a brand new and highly praised art installation which features over a thousand origami doves soaring majestically overhead. Inscribed with messages and prayers of peace and hope, the doves are folded by people from around the world, including the alumni of Hudson Link, who added their thoughts about what “release” means to them.
Notes
Your ticket purchase will directly support Hudson Link’s college programs for incarcerated men and women.
