Arts in Corrections is a program at Pelican Bay State Prison, a Supermax State Prison in California, in which professional artists are brought into prisons to teach an art form to incarcerated individuals in support of their rehabilitation. The latest exhibit of the Arts in Corrections program was on display at the Del Norte County Courthouse in June 2019. The inmates of Pelican Bay State Prison depicted different versions of their lives in a visual art exhibition. Some drew inspiration from exotic locales for their art. For others, it was faces of the loved ones who may be waiting for them when they leave the prison walls.

One student, Mr. Yanez, drew the metamorphosis he goes through to survive on the inside. Yanez also has been involved in other Arts in Corrections classes including theater arts, creative writing, and guitar. The Arts in Corrections program also is incorporating a new audio journalism class this year in the hopes of starting a podcast similar to a popular program through San Quentin State Prison called Ear Hustle. Currently in its third season, Ear Hustle is generated by inmates and chronicles their lives.
