The 2025 Resilience Arts Festival was the Mud Theatre Project's premiere festival showcasing original work by system-impacted artists and writers. It was a smashing success, and we want you to be a part of bringing it back in 2026!

Last year, we were able to pay 38 artists, many of whom remain incarcerated. Producing their work for a public audience was momentous for us, the artists themselves, and their loved ones. The Resilience Arts Festival is a bridge between the inside and the outside, breaking down prison walls through the power of art and theatre.

Your sponsorship supports artists and brings live theatre and performance to system-impacted communities.
