Yesterday, I installed a new (one of many rotating quarterly inmate art exhibits) within the lobby of the Marin County Public Defenders’ office (Marin Civic Center in San Rafael, CA). This time, it’s an interesting potpourri of prison artwork including a panoply of panos art (art created on handkerchiefs and/or fabric such as Pete Zepeda’s XXLG T-Shirts).
Most of the artwork is available for purchase including Pete’s A BREED RESOLUTE - an incredibly detailed blue pen drawing on a man’s XXLG white T-Shirt. 50% of funds from the sale of this art will directly benefit the Cover Your K-9 Fund, which provides safety equipment and medical care for police and sheriff's dogs, and other working K-9 teams.
If feasible, check out the art in person:
