Intro/Nike community billboard project

Hey people its ya boy Sneakeraddict!!! I was blessed enough to be put on this blog by my brother Musicaddict and this is my first post but you can expect sneaker info, randomness, fashion info, and just being put on to the new!!! Well today i bring you info on The Community Billboard Project, together with the Department of Youth & Community Development Beacon Programs in the New York metropolitan area on January 7. The Community Billboard Project was created to drive forward youth art and to exhibit their connection to their community through photography and with Ninety youth members of such community centers as the Research Foundation of CUNY in Brooklyn, the Harlem Children’s Zone, and The Southern Queens Park Association were armed with disposable cameras and a mission to capture their daily lives in their community through film. 

From the many photographs submitted, images captured by Manika Nestor of Brooklyn, Eleny M. Ynoa of Harlem, and Joquin Tatum of Queens were selected to appear on one of the three Community Billboards in the Brooklyn, Harlem, and Queens metropolitan areas. The three billboards will remain on display until the 27th of January 2008. Following the installation of the Billboards, each community center celebrated their winner by hosting open exhibitions of their work for the community and their family and friends. Oh and did i mention this was put together by NIKE and that one of these billboards is right in my home, Flatbush those who have the chance should check it out its right by Prospect park train station. 

Thanks to Freshness for the heads up.
