Be a Part of the Detroit Windsor Journal Project

Two graduate students at Wayne State University in the Masters of Fine Arts Program are looking for volunteers in the Detroit/Windsor area to participate in an art project.

We are asking volunteers to keep a personal journal for the day of Monday, October 2nd 2006. There are no restrictions, entries can range from a sentence to a page or more and can be handwritten or typed. Spelling and grammar are not a concern. We are asking that participants be open, honest and creative. Entries should reflect on and record daily routines and interactions with others. Participants should feel free to include drawings with their journals.

The project is intended to provide a glimpse into the lives of the people living in our city, while illuminating the cultural differences that shape and define our communities.

This project is being proposed to the Shrinking Cities: Wayne State Responses Exhibition to be held January 2007 on campus at the
Elaine L. Jacobs Gallery.

Participation is open to all ages; we encourage volunteers to ask friends and family members to participate. Participants will remain anonymous.
