DESCRIPTION:On June 13 at 2:30 pm, writer and artist Linda Norton in collaboration with 
 Friends Peralta Hacienda Historical Park will inaugurate a new and exciting 
 exhibit about the effects of mass incarceration in Oakland. The exhibit 
 called, Home & Away: Oakland California's Prisons, and the Geography of the 
 Heart, is the final result of a series of interviews and workshops in which 
 youth and adults discussed the effects mass incarceration has had in their 
 lives. In the exhibit Linda Norton explores the connections between those 
 who remain in the neighborhood and those who are "away," behind bars. 
 \n\nAbout Linda Norton \nLinda Norton is a writer and archivist and senior 
 editor at the Bancroft Library's Regional Oral History Office. She has a 
 long history of working with documentary and found objects in her collages 
 and exhibits. Her debut publication, The Public Gardens: Poems and History 
 (2011), was a finalist for an LA Times book prize. \n\nAbout Peralta 
 Hacienda \nFriends of Peralta Hacienda Historical Park offers an 
 environment for the enjoyment of the community, where neighbors as well as 
 visitors from the region, state, and nation can be actively involved in its 
 historical and natural features through performances, tours, community 
 gardens, community-initiated enterprises, celebrations and educational 
 workshops and programs. We present and interpret the untold history of the 
 Peralta rancho and the stories of the Fruitvale community today, giving 
 voice to the many cultures that have created - and are still transforming - 
 California. The six-acre park and historic house form an arts and 
 educational hub for local families and youth, and regional center for 
 historical inquiry and discovery.\n\nContacts:\nHolly Alonso, Executive
