Most of you may have known that I was able to attend 3 Obama events during the campaign trail last year. (Madison, Grant Park & the inauguration)
What you probably don't know is that I am planning a photo exhibit titled "The Face of Change" due to open June 6th at the Glass Nickel on Atwood.
Part of the artist statement is involving the reader to think about this concept of what it takes to create a change within their own lives. To take a look at these photos and think about how they reflect on their own lives.
One of the ideas I had to take 2 things and create something new around this concept is to bring in any group organizers, volunteer organization or group that organizes people to be part of "The Face of Change." This is where I would like your help. If you are involved in an organization or group that makes a difference in any regard I would like to include you as a representative for "The Face of Change." My hope is to have a list of groups involved in the official press release of the show to have a representative simply come to the premiere with a name tag / mailing list or basic information about their cause to speak to people to encourage them to create a change in the here and now as they look at and enjoy the photos. :)
Sound like a good idea? I hope I can build a base of support for this part of the exhibit to inspire and move people to action through my photographs.
Please contact me if you think you or someone you may know might be interested in being part of "The Face of Change."
Otherwise the exhibit will be on display through August 6th if you cannot make it out to the premiere June 6th at the Glass Nickel on Atwood Ave.
Please forward this to anyone I may have missed or any of your friends and family.
Remember that change, no matter how big or small will not happen without an individual who is inspired to physically create a change starting with the only time their ever is... right now. Please create a change today and HELP me create my vision to "The Face of Change." :)
