Photobooth Truck—Portraits on Climate and Health: Dreams We Carry
Tuesday, September 10, 2024
Inside Out Group Action Join us at the Inside Out photobooth truck in Theodore Roosevelt Park to have your portrait taken and your stories heard in anticipation of Climate Week NYC
A photobooth truck will be parked on the Columbus Avenue side of the Museum from Monday, September 9, through Wednesday, September 11. Beginning at 11 am each day, the public is invited to line up to have their portrait taken inside the truck.
- You’ll be asked to reflect on the question, “As climate change reshapes our lives, what stories of transformation and dreams of a healthier future do you carry with you?”
- Select images will be displayed in the Portraits on Climate and Health: Dreams We Carry installation in the Museum’s Ellen V. Futter Gallery beginning September 23. Your portrait may also be featured in a projection in the Richard Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation during Climate Week (September 23–27). These installations are part of Canopy, Wellcome’s citizen art and science festival, bringing health to the heart of Climate Week NYC.
- An online gallery of the photography and testimonies captured will be available on the Inside Out Project’s webpage beginning Monday, September 16.
Portraits on Climate and Health: Dreams We Carry is a group action installation of the Inside Out Project, a global art platform created by French artist JR that helps communities around the world stand up for what they believe in and spark global change by taking local action. Since the Project’s creation in 2011, over 560,000 people have participated in 152 countries and territories.
