“Having been active as a mentor at Walker State Prison, I was excited to learn of Holly Mulcahy’s desire to bring music into the prison as a healing medium for the men there. It has been wonderful and moving to be able to attend every recital and witness first-hand the impact of these programs on the men. The music and interactive format has evoked emotion, memories of family and friends, and recall of times when they were free; it has had a healing and restorative impact that is beautiful to see. These experiences have helped restore a sense of dignity and humanity to individuals who have been experiencing hard times in their lives.
It has been a great privilege to watch Arts Capacity grow and evolve in its ministry to incarcerated people, and I look forward to seeing what lies ahead.”
