The Front Steps Project // Seattle, Part 2
Hello Seattle Friends,
We're all living through strange times and while social distancing is necessary, so is finding ways to give back to our community. One of our neighbors shared the #TheFrontStepsProject (started in Massachusetts by Cara Soulia) with me and I loved it so much, I plan on doing the same here in Seattle.
#TheFrontStepsProject bring us together virtually despite being - and maybe feeling - isolated. We aim to highlight the faces of our community during a time when we might not see them in passing at the grocery store, coffee shop, on the train or at the gym. We may be temporarily separated, but we are always united.
PART 2, BENEFITING SEATTLE CHILDREN'S PLAYGARDEN:
Your participation in this second part of the project will directly benefit Seattle Children's Playgarden. This amazing place offer kids opportunities to engage in meaningful play/work in an outdoor setting.
Your support will also help the PlayGarden ensure the growth of Inclusion, Garden to Table and Adventure Play in our community. I know many families, including my own, visit the PlayGarden and attend its many free programs and inclusive workshops.
HOW THIS WORKS:
1. You make a donation to the Seattle Children's PlayGarden (suggested $100 donation) here on Go Fund Me.
2. You sign up for time window day that I will be in your Seattle neighborhood.
Sign up here: https://goodsell.photos/the-front-steps-project (Please note that these sessions are for May 2020 as the national project has asked all photographers taking part in this volunteer project to take a pause with state stay home mandates.)
3. You will know when I am arriving by text! When I drive by and be least 10 feet away with my camera. You gather on your front steps. I briefly photograph you guys ( families, solo, couples, with pets, etc. anyone) on your front steps, again from afar. 5-10 minutes max.
4. The next day you will receive a gallery link to your photos to download, share, and have a memory of forever.
I will be posting these images on Facebook and Instagram using the hashtag #TheFrontStepsProject as part of a national community of neighbors.
SIGN UP. GIVE A DONATION. MAKE SOME MEMORIES.
We're all in this together!
