The Only Door I Can Open: Women Exposing Prison Through Art and Poetry 
The Only Door I Can Open: Women Exposing Prison Through Art and Poetry is a repeat collaboration between Empowerment Avenue (EA), Flyaway Productions, and Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) focused on the experiences of women from the Central California Women’s Facility, curated from that prison by Chantell-Jeannette Black and Tomiekia Johnson. The exhibition is one facet of Flyaway’s project If I Give You My Sorrows which explores women’s complex relationships to their beds.
