Photo Exhibit - Mixed Race Multiracial Multiethnic Experience

Call for Participants
Photo Exhibit - Mixed Race Multiracial Multiethnic Experience
Spring 2008

Back to Back, a program of Community Alliance of Lane County (CALC), in collaboration with H.O.N.E.Y. (Honoring Our New Ethnic Youth), is developing a photo exhibit to highlight the multiracial experience in Lane County. The goal of this project is to raise awareness, acceptance and validation of the different experiences that people of mixed race and heritage have in Lane County. This new exhibit will counter
stereotyping by helping people recognize there are many different experiences in
Lane County and will encourage people to be more accepting of their neighbors, co-workers, and classmates. The exhibit will comprise a wide range of subjects, with attention paid to diverse representation across race, age, and background.
This new exhibit is the third in a series that has been developed by CALC. All photo exhibits are lent to schools, agencies, colleges and universities, businesses, and other organizations to put on display in public areas such as libraries and lobbies.
Participants of ages, from infants to elders are being sought. All participants must live and/or work in
Lane County. The application from is attached. Feel free to forward this announcement to others who may be interested.
