InThrive Film Festival: Night 3

  • McGuireWoods Gallery (2nd Floor, W16) Workhouse Arts Center 9518 Workhouse Way, Lorton (map)

The Lorton Prison Museum at the Workhouse Arts Center is proud to host night 3 of the InThrive Film Festival in our area. InThrive brings 3 nights at 3 venues, showcasing the voices and talents of incarceration survivors to communities across Northern Virginia! 

Come and be moved by films that challenge your views on people impacted by incarceration, inspired by incarceration survivors sharing their stories, and get connected with organizations and individuals working to remove barriers to successful reentry.

Each evening starts with time to meet community partners that are doing incredible work in Northern Virginia and beyond. Then several films that elevate the voices and talents of incarceration survivors will be screened. Each evening is wrapped with a discussion about the films or highlighting local folks impacted by the justice system.
