In the coming months, expect to see leatherwork and paintings from talented artists added to the site!

We really enjoy getting mail from the artists.  Their letters are so sincere, and they are so happy to have this opportunity!

If you know a queer or trans prisoner who would like to get their artwork displayed on our site, please get contact us!

Boston Pride 2010: Prison is a GLBT Issue!

Black & Pink  had a really popular booth at Boston Pride 2010!  Our booth had bright panels of black and pink fabric for walls, and plenty of friendly volunteers  who helped set up the display and show people around.  We had many of the handwritten poems  and stories included in the monthly Black & Pink newsletter posted, as well as artwork, and a great list of ten reasons to support prison abolition.

We passed out pens with blackandpink.org and blackandpinkart.org imprinted on them, as well as stickers encouraging people to write pen-pals.   Contact us if you are interested in helping to promote Black & Pink in your area!

We look forward to being part of the Multicultural Pride being hosted in Boston by the Queer Women of Color and Friends Boston organization during the first week of August!.  We will be displaying artwork in an artshow, and having a prison pen-pal writing and karaoke night!
