Hello artists and art lovers! Here’s a great opportunity to get on Artblog and be part of the stream of love going out to our new Mayor Michael Nutter as he gets ready to appoint an art czar and create an Office of Arts and Culture (we hope).
Here’s the deal. We will create a series of photo posts on the blog called A Kiss for Mayor Nutter that will include images of artists and art lovers throughout the city. These images make the face of the “arts” constituency somehow more real than it seems when people talk about artists and the arts.
So, send us jpeg images of yourselves in the city, one per artist — at Love Park, at a gallery, at the museums, the zoo, on Broad St….somewhere in Philly–you know you have these photos and we want em! Send medium resolution images (281 height x 375 width is the Artblog standard size) with your name and the location of the picture. We will run these images in a stream under the heading “A Kiss for Mayor Nutter” in a continuing series of posts starting today.
Act now and send us your images (one per person, please). Email: libbyandroberta@gmail.com .
We are acting in collaboration with Kevin Derrick, of designphiladelphia blog, who proposed an image campaign to show the how Philadelphia artists love the city and love being artists here. Check out what Kevin is doing on his blog.
So see yourself on Artblog and show the Mayor the faces of Philadelphia’s visual art world!!
