Welcome to the Prison Creative Arts Project

Founded in 1990, The Prison Creative Arts Project (PCAP) is committed to original work in the arts in Michigan correctional facilities, juvenile facilities, urban high schools, and communities across the state.  Our process is guided by respect and a spirit of collaboration in which vulnerability, risk and improvisation lead to discovery.  We make possible the spaces in which the voices and visions of the incarcerated can be expressed.  more about us »
