Art Me is a company helping guide ex-offenders in the right direction by offering opportunities to take part in art therapy. As a form of rehabilitation, the aim is to address prisoners’ and ex-offenders’ social isolation by inclusion in a creative environment.

By working with parole officers, the company will sign-up individuals interested in receiving the Art Me box.

Eventually ex-offenders will have the opportunity to be with people of similar backgrounds in art studios, provided by potential partners.

The initial aim of the art box is to offer the first steps in joining art therapy classes. The box would include materials to help get them started, and provide all the necessary information included in the introductory booklet.
