With their work hidden from the
public, Lakes maintains that without
a “path” they have no meaningful
way to give back to the community.
Staging P.A.T.H.’s exhibit at Alcatraz
took Lakes three years to put
together, and included submitting
a formal application, meeting
strict guidelines, and gaining
the permission and support of
the Golden Gate National Parks
Conservancy, Arts in the Parks and
the National Park Service.
Now, with the help of a few
dedicated volunteers and local
business supporters, Lakes hopes to
introduce the more than 100,000
visitors who stumble into the
Alcatraz Band Practice Room to
the incarcerated artists who have
expertly executed their “Art Escape”
to Alcatraz. Besides experiencing
the ghostly presence of former
inmates, these tourists will discover
beautiful art and poetry as paths
to creative freedom that cannot be
locked away. For these inmates, the
band plays on.
“Art Escape to Alcatraz” runs through
June 30. For more information, visit
