A Note From the Field 003: The Story From Within
Join us for Keshad’s Open Studio!
Join Keshad Adeniyi as he facilitates this art show comprised of work from the young people that went through The Story From Within curriculum – whose goal is to inspire artworks that speak to healing, community building, and the sociopolitical conditions of youth who fall on the spectrum of criminal legal system involvement.
Keshad “ife” Adeniyi is a multi-media artist from Watts, California, who uses poetry, painting, and rap as pedagogical tools to engage both youth and adults directly impacted by America’s carceral apparatus. He has dedicated his career to carceral work centered on education, justice, and transformation. His experiences programming in carceral institutions both domestically and internationally have helped to inform the development of his original program titled The Story From Within. Additionally, Keshad serves as the Director of Education and Curriculum Development at exalt youth.
