"Creative Writing Workshop Vol. 1," The Eastern Correctional Facility creative writing anthology, assembled by the men of the Lifers & Longtermers Committee Creative Writing Workshop and published by Archive-Based Creative Arts.
Archive-Based Creative Arts is an arts program, publishing platform and archiving collective building collaborations across the prison wall. The new anthology emerged through a creative writing workshop created and led by Lamarr "Streets" Reid and Santos "Pikasso" Lopez at Eastern Correctional Facility, and was edited and compiled by ABCA's resident archivist Serious Soul Brother. The workshop and its anthology were created by incarcerated people from behind the wall, and ABCA is thrilled to preview their work for the public -- and tell the story of how it all came to be.
It’s a Living Newspaper! Diverse artistic voices will be heard via live call-ins! Poetry! Music! And a new cranky created by the ABCA team with Great Small Works.

Space Access: Teatro SEA is in the process of renovating their building for access (hopefully by Spring). Currently there are 5 stairs to enter the building. Public restrooms are on the third floor. There is a restroom on ground level that can be made available, but it isn’t spacious enough to fit a chair.
Great Small Works is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts.
Additional thanks to: the Puppet Slam Network, the Scherman Foundation, and the Constance and Jarvis Doctorow Family Foundation.
