BUY Art! Free Women for Mother's Day!
This spring a powerful group of formerly incarcerated women in Philadelphia are collaborating with artists from across the United States to use art to raise money to bail out Black mothers and caregivers for mother's day!
The People’s Paper Co-op is a women led, women focused, women powered art and advocacy project at the Village of Arts and Humanities in North Philadelphia. The PPC looks to women in reentry as the leading criminal justice experts our society needs to hear from and uses art to amplify their stories, dreams, and visions for a more just and free world.
Since 2018, the People’s Paper Co-op has collaborated with the Philadelphia Community Bail Fund on their annual Mama's Day Bail Out campaign. Each year we organize exhibitions, parades, press conferences, and events to raise awareness and funds for the campaign ,while sharing the stories, dreams, and demands of formerly incarcerated women with thousands of Philadelphians. Our poster and t-shirt sales have raised over $220,000 to free Black mothers and caregivers for Mother’s Day!
In our fifth year of collaborating on the campaign to #ENDCashBail, it has become clear that the work is more important and urgently needed than ever. We need your help to get folks to safety, buy the women's beautiful art and help #FreeOurMamas #FreeOurSisters #FreeOurQueens !!!!
