Join us on February 7, 2026, for Through Their Eyes — a community film screening and conversation centered on families impacted by incarceration.

The evening features filmmaker and advocate Autumn Mason, alongside a screening of Black Butterflies by Artist-in-Residence Starling Thomas. Together, these films explore family separation, motherhood, resilience, and healing.

Following the screenings, Starling will moderate a powerful conversation with Autumn, her mother, and her sister: three generations reflecting on survival and what healing can look like after incarceration.

This open studio invites Houston’s justice-impacted community and allies to gather in reflection and care. This open studio gathering is an intentional invitation to Houston’s justice-impacted community — mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, loved ones, and allies — to come together in reflection, dialogue, and collective care.

We hope you’ll join us and help carry these stories forward. RSVP Here

Presented by Represent Justice in partnership with The Ladies of Hope Ministries & The Anderson Center for Arts
