Portraits of Hope invites you to participate in NYC in Full Bloom!

WHO: You, your friends/family/coworkers + hundreds of NYC kids

WHAT: An unprecedented, massive volunteer event. Help kids give 80,000 *real* flowers to New Yorkers throughout the city - each for one of the 80,000 flowers hand-painted by children and volunteers over the last year as part of Garden in Transit!

WHERE: Locations from downtown to uptown along Broadway and Lexington (more details to come)

WHEN: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1st, 2007. 8am-6pm; shifts start every 2 hours (8am, 10am, 12pm, etc)

WHY: Kids and volunteers painted more than 80,000 flowers over the last year, enough to cover every yellow taxi in NYC. By participating in this day-long, city-wide event you can put real flowers in motion and become part of a walking Garden in Transit. With your help hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers will be involved by day's end. Help transform the entire city and ensure that no flower painting is left out of the exhibition!

If you would like to participate, please e-mail nelia@portraitsofhope.org
