2016 has been a big year so far, including: Walk Around Philadelphia pilgrimage around the city’s perimeter w/ Swim Pony Performing Arts Here: Stories for Selinsgrove Center & Kencrest Services Exhibit at City Hall w/ Institute on Disabilities at Temple University OPEN for Interpretation Artist-in-residence at the National Museum of American Jewish History The Image of Yoga Round two of community yoga photography project, sponsored by Gaiam.

Up next:

I’m hosting the sixth round of How Philly Moves, the dance photography project featured in the mural by the same name at PHL Int’l Airport, & continuing my house concert series in W. Philly.

I’m also collaborating with the Interfaith Center of Greater Philadelphia on a new project to build bridges of understanding, both between people of various religious traditions, and between folks who consider themselves religious & those who don’t.

As I let go of commercial photography practices and transition to focus fully on community practice & public art, I’m looking to build support for this work. That means growing my small pool of sustainers, updating you on projects and asking for more help.

@jjtiziou

I’d welcome your support, whether it be as a participant, donor, or audience.

Thank you, -jj
