Prison Project -- Since our inception we have been working to bring instruments and free music education to people in prison in Maine. With help from the Onion Foundation, we brought guitars and creative interventions to the Southern Maine Women's Reentry Center during the pandemic. We are now working to bring therapeutic creative arts interventions to prisons across the state. 

​

PF Collab with MIO -- Maine Inside Out is a performing arts nonprofit comprised of people previously incarcerated at Long Creek. We helped build them a recording studio at their headquarters in Lewiston.

​

PF Recording Studio--  We provide free recording services to musicians with lack of resources, and anyone looking to collaborate! We’ve just released our first album from New Portland band D.I.R.T., recorded by the Freewill Mobile Recording Studio in their one room cabin.
