Portrait Project 2.0: Gimme 5!

The Everyday Joe’s Portrait Project: Legendary in some minds. Unknown in others. Undeniably super awesome.

However, all things must come to an end, and the Portrait Project did during the summer of 2007. The pictures of those claiming to be an Everyday Joe can still be viewed at the coffee house. Some of the folks are still around, some have moved on. It is a beautiful picture of the viral spreading of the Everyday Joe’s Community. Not a sinister virus, though. A virus full of love and good folks.

I’d now like to introduce to you…Portrait Project 2.0: Gimme 5!

You see, the original project involved people coming to Daryle in order to have their picture taken around the building, holding a mug, and looking like a champ. This time, the camera is in your hands, along with a giant, wooden 5 (to celebrate EJ’s five years of existence).

It works like this:

1. Grab your camera
2. Come into Everyday Joe’s (144 S. Mason, Ft. Collins)
3. Get the giant, wooden five off the wall. It’s kind of hard to miss.
4. Take a picture with the 5 in or around Everyday Joe’s.
5. E-mail the picture to portrait@everydayjoes.org
6. Wait in heated anticipation to see your art on the wall.

Ground rules:

1. NO CELL PHONE PICTURES
2. The picture must be taken in our around Everyday Joe’s
3. BE SAFE

That’s it. Get creative. Involve as many people as possible. Have a nice time.

Love,

Everyday Joe’s
