WHO IS MIAMI
April 23, 2022 - August 13, 2022
MAIN LIBRARY // BUS SHELTERS
We call them ordinary people doing extraordinary things. They are of different ages. They are of different cultures and skin colors. They work in different industries. But their truth, wisdom, power, and beauty are in what they believe, what they tell, and what they do for a better world.
“Who Is Miami” is a multimedia storytelling collaboration between Impact.Edition and Good Miami Project to capture the tremendous – and sometimes invisible – efforts of local changemakers fighting for social and environmental justice.
Explore the gallery preview of community stories and inspiring photography that will be launched as an out-of-home advertising campaign framed in bus stop shelters across Miami-Dade neighborhoods. Viewers learn more about the changemakers-in-portrait by scanning QR–codes on the artworks.
Photography: Good Miami Project provides pro-bono photoshoots for Miami-based nonprofits and individuals doing good to help further their missions. Images are free for organizations to use. www.goodmiami.org
Curator: Impact.Edition is an intellectual media space that serves to empower people with best practices and creative solutions for a more just, more sustainable world. Impact.Edition journalism merges meaning and emotion in order to drive positive social change, raise awareness about local/national/international issues and connect on a human level. www.impactedition.org
The public exhibition at the Main Library will be on view through August 11, 2022. It is made possible with the support of the Green Family Foundation, the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs, and the Miami-Dade Public Library Systems.
