The Linkage Community is a branch of the Prison Creative Arts Project (PCAP).
While PCAP connects currently incarcerated artists with the U of M community, the Linkage Community is co-directed by artists who have come home and are interested in continuing to pursue the creative arts.
Members have access to professional development and artistic workshops, a creative peer support network, opportunities to exhibit and perform, and other connections to the arts and allied organizations.
