Women of change (College & Community Fellowship)

About

A short form documentary-style promotional video that we produced, shot, and edited for College & Community Fellowship to showcase their 2022 "Women of Change" art show and live performance piece. Hear directly from these amazing women who have been impacted by the justice system about why they make their art and the impact that CCF and other non-profits focused on providing community and support for formerly incarcerated individuals have on the lives of the people they serve.

With support from the Art for Justice Fund, a sponsored project of Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, CCF partnered with the Josephine Herrick Project and Noelle Ghoussaini to provide photography and multidisciplinary arts workshops over 13 weeks. The workshops culminated in an in-person presentation, Women of Change: A Transformation Exhibit and Showcase, where family, friends, and the larger CCF community were invited to experience and learn more about the personal transformation each participant went through to create their art piece.

The arts exhibition officially kick-started CCF's newest initiative Bronx Redefining Advocates for Civic Engagement (BRACE), to build more political and individual power amongst justice-impacted communities in the Bronx.
