Using Art to Build Pride - NYTimes

The Museum of Contemporary Art in works with women in juvenile justice and drug rehabilitation programs in Miami. As I read the New York Times article I was reminded of Tacoma’s own, and rather impressive, Remann Hall Women’s Project.

The Remann Hall Women’s Project has been working for the past three and a half years to give incarcerated girls hope and to try to re-connect them to their potential so they are successful in creating a life for themselves once they leave.

Everything I’ve seen on this project impresses me. Support them if you can.

    …having found the Kickstarter page, let me add: $5300? Is there really NO bank in Tacoma that will lend this thriving business five grand to expand? Interest rates are super low right now; how is this business not able to borrow this money cheaply?

    Okay, I admit I don’t know anything about their finances, or business finances really. But…$5300?

    That said, I hope they succeed, and I do plan on visiting them sometime soon to check out the soup.
