ConTextos Family Publication Event

@ Row 24 Chicago

2411 S Michigan Ave, Chicago, IL 60616

Opening Saturday, January 20th, from 11AM - 3PM

Please plan to arrive promptly at 11AM. This event will feature a live videoconference with recently published ConTextos Authors in Cook County Department of Corrections, reflections on the Authors Circle journey, and opportunities to read the individual illustrated memoirs written by our Authors.

Since January 2017, ConTextos has collaborated with the Cook County Sheriff’s Office to implement Authors Circle in Division 6, and now Division 11, of Cook County Department of Corrections as part of a vision for reform that recognized the value of mental health, rehabilitation, and reflection. The initial Authors Circle is just the start of each Authors ongoing relationship with ConTextos, which continues via ongoing alumni programming.
