Sing Sing Prison Museum

Sing Sing Prison Museum envisions a justice system dedicated to healing and rehabilitation and a society that respects individual humanity and dignity. We work to use the lessons of our past to heal the wounds of mass incarceration, protect the vulnerable, and acknowledge the complexities of the criminal justice system in the United States. We value diversity, equity, inclusion and access in all aspects of our work. Our goal is to ensure our institutional framework, policy and practices reflect these values in all we do. We are committed to listening and re-evaluating in order to maintain an accessible and safe space that encourages a free and fair exchange of ideas for all. The Museum’s intersectional focus on equity, diversity, and inclusion in addressing current and future issues aims to integrate best practices across all procedure, policy, and programs for marginalized groups who face issues of discrimination or exclusion. It is our goal to ensure that all perspectives represented in the institution are approached with care and thought in order to make a positive impact within our community. We believe in the power of a well-informed society to imagine a more just future.
