Frequently Asked Questions:

InmateCreate.com is operated by a network of FAMILY, FRIENDS & SUPPORTERS of incarcerated people. Our loved ones have made wrong choices in the past, but those actions do not define their humanity. We are focused on SUPPORTING POSITIVE CHANGE in the lives of all incarcerated people. We believe that by encouraging HEALTHY CREATIVITY, we are supporting rehabilitation, recovery and redemption for those who turn away from what’s wrong and choose to do what’s right.

Every designer featured on InmateCreate.com is currently incarcerated in state prison. They have all made bad choices in the past but are seeking a better future by channelling creativity into positive endeavours.



The proceeds from each product are split in a profit-sharing agreement between the designer of that product and InmateCreate. A portion of all profit is donated to the Pennsylvania Prison Society, the nation’s first and longest-running organization dedicated to humane treatment of incarcerated people.

At this point, we are unable to offer refunds or exchanges.

You can expect delivery via USPS about 7-10 days after your order is processed.

InmateCreate works with a third-party printing company based in the United States.



Anonymity is a key value of InmateCreate for 3 key reasons:

  1.   We want the designs to speak for themselves rather than focusing on personalities.
  2.   Anonymity insulates our designers from backlash by people who want to judge them based on their worst moments in life rather than the positive actions they are taking today.
  3.   Creating a barrier between customers and designers ensures that both can benefit from each other without concerns for unwanted contact. InmateCreate will NEVER share customer info with designers OR designer names with customers



You have the power to help incarcerated artists share their creativity with the world. This page showcases original designs waiting to be released for sale online. The only thing missing is the fee to cover digitization and posting on new products—that’s where you come in.
