Description

This event is co-sponsored by Belmont University.

Every person has dignity and potential. But one in three American adults has a criminal record, which limits their access to education, jobs, housing, and other things they need to reach that potential. The topic of justice is receiving unprecedented national attention, leading communities to question how issues of justice apply to them and decide how they will engage moving forward.

Please join Prison Fellowship and Project Return for a screening of the dynamic Oscar-nominated film “Knife Skills” and panel discussion that explores themes of second chances. The director of “Knife Skills”, Thomas Lennon, will be joining the panel, as well as the restaurant owner featured in the film, Brandon Edwin Chrostowski. You won’t want to miss it!
