September 6, 2024 will mark the sixth annual Art From The Inside exhibition. The purpose of AFTI Nebraska is to create public awareness about incarcerated life through the artworks of the incarcerated and their loved ones.

The show is broadly themed around the experience of being incarcerated and any art form is accepted. Artwork should have a message. For example, conditions in NE prisons, your experiences, things you miss, or hopes for the future. Please include a short description of the piece and the message you want it to convey.

There is no entry fee, membership, or other association required for entry into this exhibition.

Eligibility is open to anyone who is or has been incarcerated, or who is a friend or family member of someone incarcerated. You are invited to share their experience through an art form of any type or genre.

Sales: if released from the prison facility through a loved one, any proceeds from sales will be sent to the loved one. If mailed to the studio, any proceeds will be donated to the People’s City Mission, unless otherwise specified. Unsold work will be returned to the family or the artist representative. If unsold work is to be released to a designated representative, please include the best and most complete contact information for the person.
