"in the pink", launch the 1,000,000 people art project



"THINK globally, ACT locally."
Connie Noyes, a young woman who looks like a sprite from "The Dark Crystal", not only quotes a slogan from the 1970's, but also wholeheartedly believes in it.
Me, too!
Of course, I come by it naturally - I was in high school in the mid-'70's, when the dream was world-conscious actions at local levels and beyond. I realize now that such concepts take a few generations to become reality, to be part of the norm. I am so thankful that recycling has finally been realized on a nearly global level.
Back to this kickstarter project.
Her dream is to involve one million people in her art project, IN the PINK, which is billed as a multifaceted, multimedia space in which people all over the world can post their passions.
No, not that kind of passion! I'm talking about ideas which light your internal fire, ideas which can improve the world, ideas which benefit others, locally and/or globally.
Wow. Very ambitious!
Reminds me of another project I backed last month. That project has, like this one, a focus on world involvement and world improvement.
So, you think people will contribute to her art project? Do you think it will attain its funding goal of five thousand dollars?
Oh, yes, yes I do. And so do fifty-one other supporters. In fact, I've joined this project very near the deadline for its goal - only fifteen minutes remain!
But it has met, and surpassed, its goal!
In return, I am now a member of the ONE MILLION PINK website and can make a contibution to the world.
I'll get a nifty button, too, and an autographed copy of the PINKSpace catalog.
I'll send you a photo when I have it!

Happy New year Update!

Hello everyone and Happy New Year.

Things are taking longer than anticipated but they are moving forward. The website, so far behind, is finally close to being finished. Should be able to upload content in the next week. Once that is done I will send each of you a password. When you sign in you can create your own page, sort of like FB. Write, show, discuss, enlighten and dazzle as you wish. the page is yours! I will send instructions to each of you along with the password.

The book has gone though one proof printing. I will be sending everyone who signed up as a catalog sponsor a book by the end of the month. The prints and all other goodies will shipped out at the same time.

Thank you again for your support and for your patience with getting things wrapped up with the Kickstarter project.

Cheers,

Connie
