In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Emma Dogliani (@music_in_the_ville)
Music in the Ville is a charity that brings professional musicians of all genres into HMP Pentonville to perform and run weekly workshops and monthly open mic sessions on the wings. In a prison where most men spend 22 hours a day locked in cells, Music in the Ville brings light, humanity and connection through weekly live music. Our presence transforms the atmosphere on the wings, helping men feel seen, valued and capable of change.
We are very grateful to the following artists who have generously donated their art. We need to raise £60,000 each year to run our programme. We hope the money raised by this private auction will go some way to ensuring that Music in the Ville can carry on its vital work for some months to come.
List of works, donated by artists and private individuals,
to be auctioned in aid of Music in the Ville and link to the tickets can be found at: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/salonmusic/2241484
