    Join Eastern State Penitentiary as they host the University of Pennsylvania Glee Club for a holiday concert.

    Throughout the prison's history, local choirs and carolers performed for the inmates during the holidays. This tradition is renewed for the first time, as the Penn Glee Club performs for visitors to the historic site.

    Visitors can also donate new or used books for Books Through Bars, an organization that sends quality reading material to prisoners and encourages creative dialogue on the criminal justice system, thereby educating those living inside and outside of prison walls. The donation box will be available through the end of the year.
