Breaking Jail is a cultural and social project promoted by Fashion Team SRL Società Benefit, taking place from June 27 to 29, 2025, at Green Pea in Turin.

The aim is to restore visibility, dignity, and value to the professional training paths developed within penitentiary institutions, through a public event that centers on work, art, and human relationships.

Through an exhibition, a public talk, artistic performances, and convivial moments, Breaking Jail creates a space for dialogue between “inside” and “outside,” promoting a culture of reintegration and contributing to the reduction of stigma and recidivism.

The initiative stems from the desire to transform often-invisible experiences into stories of collective rebirth, offering citizens the opportunity to meet organizations working every day in the social, educational, and artisanal sectors within the prison system.
