Join the Petey Greene Program on Monday, March 27 at 6PM EST for a screening of "Art and Krimes By Krimes," followed by a panel with New Jersey regional staff from the Petey Greene Program.

While serving a six-year sentence in federal prison, artist Jesse Krimes secretly creates monumental works of art - including an astonishing 40-foot mural made with prison bed sheets, hair gel, and newspaper. He smuggles out each panel piece-by-piece with the help of fellow artists, only seeing the mural in totality upon coming home. As Jesse's work captures the art world's attention, he struggles to adjust to life outside, living with the threat that any misstep will trigger a life sentence. 

Two members of the Petey Greene team, Reginald Gaines and Een Jabriel, will join Jared Owens, a formerly incarcerated artist featured in the film, for a conversation about the film's themes of incarceration, reentry, human potential and more.

Not in the Princeton area or can't make it to the screening? You can stream "Art and Krimes By Krimes" online or attend another event.
