CELEBRATE COMMUNITY TONIGHT!
OM... One Million Faces Artist Reception tonight (Friday January 29, 2010) at Naropa.
I hope you can join us to celebrate the first exhibit of artwork created from the One Million Faces project. OM...One Million Faces is currently on display at Naropa University in Boulder, CO. Reception and OMF Photo Shoot Friday January 29, 2010 6pm - 8pm.
Community Inspired, Community Created - The OM show features numerous original works mixed media collages created by Peggy and members of the community from the OMF images captured in 2009. This modern art project was inspired by the Bon Jovi song, "Wanted Dead or Alive" on February 26th, 2009. The first photo shoot event manifested on February 28th, 2009 and Peggy’s friend Angie was the first of one million faces. In case you are wondering who will be the #1,000,000 face, Peggy hopes it can be President Barack Obama.
To date, Peggy has photographed 1,264 faces towards her goal for The One Million Faces Project. What number will you be?

Peggy Dyer is traveling the country, dotting the map for her causes seeking out community events and local hot spots to host her “photo-booth” style shoots. Charitable contributionsn are collected on-site and additional donations can be made through the official OMF website.
Each face captured in a photo is a memory of how One Million Faces can impact our world. While the portrait of America unfolds, potentially millions of dollars can be raised for charities nationwide Currently, The One Million Faces project donates their time and funds to the following charities:
