4th of July Celebration in Chico
The 4th of July Chico Celebration at One-Mile 2013
We arrived at, a cool, 7:40 am and set up at spaces 29, 30,
and 31. This was the most impressive
exhibit of the Peace Panel Project yet!
11 matching easels with 3 – 2’ x 4’ panels each, many of them new,
revised, or nearly new. Fresh off our
show at the Wildflower Music Festival, we showed a softer side then we did here
last year, trying to appeal to as wide an audience as possible. We left our smash-mouth Panels at home. Thanks to Bill Mash and Lakshmi, a new friend named Doug, Greg and
all the friends that stopped by we had a good show.
Chris Nelson bicycled by in Guantanamo garb, with her signs to remind
people of the injustice there. Standing
in her orange jump suit and black hood that had to be hot!
It’s fun to watch some passersby, occasionally, get hooked
into reading every word of several Panels.
We sold some books; had discussions; got signatures on petitions
(including No on Sit & Lie); opened
some eyes. Photography got underway prior
to most viewers’ arrival. Folding up the
Project, in the sun, at 1 pm on this
4th of July proved to be a challenge. It was so hot the exertion took another
day to recover from. It was HOT! How hot was it? Damn Hot!
