California Lawyers for the Arts is now conducting a multi-year demonstration project in county jails throughout California. Results are documented in a 2017 report, Arts-in-Corrections: County Jails Project. With additional foundation and NEA support, CLA is contracting with local arts agencies to place artists at county jails and administer surveys to participants who complete the arts classes. The findings from CLA’s first project year were based on art programs in Sacramento, Fresno, Los Angeles, Santa Cruz and San Francisco county jails. For more information about this project, contact aic@calawyersforthearts.org.
