You're Getting Transferred, Anon, HM Prison Shotts Art by Offenders-Courtesy of the Koestler Trust |
The exhibition held over 2 weeks in the Chapel of HMP Exeter.
The highlight of this event was the guest speaker Mr Arnold
Kanarek who spoke to great effect about his family. His grandparents had fled
the Nazi terror in Europe, however the majority of his extended family had
cruelly perished during this time. A fascinating story brought up to date with
Arnold’s own story and fascinating career as professional musician and fashion
designer amongst other things.
Steve Gadd (Prison Project Manager) worked with a very strong group of guides, who devised
their own method of presentation, and had some very good ideas as to additional
material addressing prisoners issues.
Thanks to Governor Ian Napper and the Rev Bill Birdwood for
hosting this very memorable event.
