About the Project


The Center for Social Justice & Civil Liberties in the Riverside Community College District was awarded a generous Creative Corps Inland SoCal Grant to produce The Body of Freedom in 2023-2024.   We thank Creative Corps Inland SoCal for their generous grant that helped our project take wings!


This year we proudly partner with the City of Riverside to produce 

The Body of Freedom Free Art Workshops and Exhibition at the Center for Social Justice & Civil Liberties.   The Body of Freedom is a collaborative project that partners Ramona High School, Division 9 Gallery, and the Center for Social Justice & Civil Liberties in supporting local artists to create inclusive, community-based art workshops rooted in social justice and equity. 


Five Visual Arts workshops include:

Community Quilt-Making with Dr. Kiandra Jimenez

The Magic of Monoprint with Cosmé Cordova

Wellness Mural Painting with Selena Wilson

 The Mosaic Body with Edith Motley & Erin Maroufkhani

Heart Sculpture Paper Maché Building with Cosmé Cordova


All Art Workshops will be FREE and open to the public.

Community-based art workshops will run between 

September 28th – November 13th 2024.


All artworks created in the Fall workshops 

will be showcased in The Body of Freedom Exhibition, 

which will run between March 6 - May, 1, 2025,
