The Zen Buddhist Temple in Ann Arbor, Michigan, brought Buddhas on Death Row into its vibrant community on 11-25 July 2017. The exhibition was part of the Temple’s Summer Lecture series which explored issues around mass incarceration, including fair justice and Buddhist work in prisons.

Visitors shared their reflections and messages on post-its and the exhibit journal, weaving a conversation into the exhibit. Shared practice rippled into sits synced with Moyo. Much gratitude to Senior Priest Haju Sunim and the whole Ann Arbor Sangha for the power of practice in action and community.

We are always looking for ways for Buddhas on Death Row to be of service to community and dialogue.

Got an idea? Get in touch. Let’s build.
