LACONIA — Inmate artwork from Belknap County Department of Corrections will be on display Feb. 2 to 26 in the Riverside Room at the Belknap Mill.

This art showing as well as previous art showings at the Busiel Mill and Lakes Region Community College are the goals of Tamara McGonagle, programs director at Belknap County Department of Corrections and Mary Ellen Boudman, volunteer art teacher at the corrections facility.

McGonagle joined the Department of Corrections in May 2010 and shortly after started a monthly inmate art contest. It soon became evident that many of the inmates had exceptional talent when it came to visual arts. During the months that followed McGonagle began reaching out to community members who would be interested in volunteering at the jail and it was then that she met Boudman an artist and retired art teacher from Newfound Regional High School.
