Podcasting from Prison

Known as Red Onion Randy, Randy Via is currently incarcerated at Buckingham Correction Center in Virginia. From inside prison, Randy shares honest, unfiltered conversations about daily life behind bars, prison culture, personal growth, accountability, and survival on the Red Onion Randy Podcast. For this Learning at Lunch talk, Via will call into the Workhouse to speak with our audience directly. Due to the unique nature of this iteration of the program, we ask that if you have a specific question for Via that you email it in advance to us at Museum@WorkhouseArts.org.

The Lorton Prison Museum featuring the Lucy Burns Gallery at the Workhouse Arts Center is proud to present the fourth season of Learning at Lunch, a series illuminating aspects of the former prison’s 91-year history. Each month, we invite an expert to tackle a topic related to our complicated past. After a brief 30-minute talk, presenters answer audience questions, and all attendees are invited to visit the museum following the program. Table seating provided and attendees are encouraged to bring their own lunch; snacks and beverages available for purchase in the W16 Visitor Center.

Free, no registration required.
