Inside Out


Artworks by inmates of HM Northward and Fairbanks prisons and residents of the Caribbean Haven Residential Centre


12 Sep – 27 Sep 2019

Exhibition

The Inside Out exhibition featured artworks by participants in the National Gallery’s outreach programme Art Haven, instructed by Mr. Joseph Betty and sponsored by Mr. Kevin Butler and Ms. Lori Monk.

The National Gallery of the Cayman Islands (NGCI) has been offering art classes within the Cayman Islands prison system since 2002. By providing regular classes and access to art supplies, NGCI helps incarcerated men and women, and individuals recovering from substance abuse, to use their time meaningfully by fostering self-expression, skill development, and a sense of purpose through the completion of projects.

Inside Out featured the work of approximately 30 artists and sought to provide a glimpse into the important role that art plays in the lives of those serving time and recovering from addiction.
