The Ginsberg Center is partnering with Maine Inside Out to explore how the program uses youth leadership and community as a force for restorative justice and social change. Come to enjoy dinner with participants of the program, learn about the work they do with incarcerated youth, and how these artists use theater as a way to create sustainable change in the ways we view punishment and incarceration in our communities.
