NOVUS NY showcases the life-changing work of Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA), a nonprofit whose arts-based programming models an approach to the justice system focused on human dignity rather than punishment. The performance featuring RTA alumni fuses music, spoken word, visual arts, and discussion around how people in prison develop critical life skills through exposure to the arts. Performers include Kenyatta Emmanuel, Darrian Bennett, Clarence Maclin, Charles Moore, Alfred Roberts and Sherika Stewart.
