THE PROJECT IN DETAIL

To reinforce the permanent cultural unit begun two years ago at the juvenile penitentiary of Airola and to start a rap workshop at the juvenile penitentiary of Catanzaro.
Beneficiairies
Approximately 15 minors involved in the juvenile penitentiaries workshops in Airola (Benevento) and Catanzaro.
Activities
CCO has been working in the Airola juvenile penitentiary in the province of Benevento since 2013, carrying out various artistic workshops. In jail, the language and techniques of the arts are instruments to learn team work and, especially, personal and collective responsibility as regards the mafia.
Since 2018, with AMI support, CCO offers the young inmates of the Airola penitentiaries workshops in script writing and musical composition aimed at the production of short films on topics chosen with the beneficiaries.
In 2020, CCO started to create a relationship between the penitentiary and the local community, organizing a festival inside the beautiful theatre of the prison, thus involving all the citizens of Airola and nearby towns. The festival was held in July 2021 and has been organized in collaboration with the Dominio Pubblico Association. The entire process to prepare for the festival was undertaken as a training activity involving the youths in artistic production. In this way, the young inmates are not simply beneficiaries of the festival but the actual organizers. The youth that are part of the script course chose short films to show, while the youth taking the musical composition and theatre course decided what kind of musical and theatrical performance to propose.
In 2022, always with the support of AMI, CCO starts also a rap music laboratory at the Paternostro in Catanzaro on a monthly or bi-monthly basis, always in a 3-day intensive formula.
