Peter Merts, photographer

This guitar class is taught by Dale Morgan; he is sponsored by the William James Association. As I was working with Dale to schedule this photo shoot, a request came from one of his students to conduct the shoot no later than the first week in January. In the second week of January, the student was to be released—and he wanted to be photographed with his classmates.

The prison staff was kind enough to accommodate this request, and I did get photos of this guitar student. He will be reviewing them on this website as a free man.

The class is part of Arts in Corrections (www.artsincorrections.org), which is funded by California's Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and administered by the California Arts Council.

At the request of several artists, prints of these images are available at cost. At the top/right of the image, find and click on the shopping basket. If the FOTOMOTO site does not open right away, please try again.
