Everett-based food justice organization Everett Community Growers (ECG) is convening a small group of Everett residents to share their experience of the City’s local food environment through a camera lens. Participants are taking to the streets as community photojournalists, and capturing images that tell stories about issues in Everett’s food system, and features that make it great. They’re doing this to identify ways to improve health and racial equity in Everett’s food system.
The project will culminate with an outdoor photo exhibit at the Northern Strand Community Farm and Trail in late spring.
Those interested in taking photos of their own can enter into the Everett Food Culture Photo Contest. The photo contest will run parallel to the PhotoVoice project, and will ask participants to take photos that celebrate food in Everett. One winning photo will be chosen to be displayed at the outdoor photo exhibit in late spring. Photo submissions can be made through March 30, 2018.
