About the film: Prison Terminal: The Last Days of Private Jack Hall is a moving cinéma vérité documentary that breaks through the walls of one of Americas oldest maximum security prisons to tell the story of the final months in the life of a terminally ill prisoner and the hospice volunteers, they themselves prisoners, who care for him.

NOTE: We are planning this as a LIVE event! Full proof of vaccination and booster and mask wearing inside is required for admission. Non alcoholic beverages, and light snacks will be available.
About Threshold Choir is a choir of women's a cappella voices that sings at bedsides in groups of two to four, offering comfort and compassion. They sing at the threshold of life, for hospice, hospital, and home-care patients, for people facing challenges of all kinds, for those surrounded by loving family, and for those alone. Experiencing the Threshold Choir is an otherworldly experience!
