Through the Library Takeover program(link is external) at Madison Public Library, four artists--Michelle Kelley, Maria Schirmer Devitt, Savannah Starlin, and Christina Theobald--have come together to transform the library into a professional photo studio with the goal of helping people see themselves more fully reflected in their community.
On Saturday, November 30, the community was invited to explore themes of self-love and self-empowerment through portraiture during a Pop-Up Portrait and community mural event taking place from 11am -3pm at Lakeview Library [2845 N Sherman Ave].
During "A Mirror of Northside Community" , local artist Maria Schirmer-Devitt offered a chance for the Northside of Madison to come together to engage with a mirror mural. Through prompts and questions designed to encourage positive reflection, the group strove to build community.
Together attendees wrote messages on a large mirror answering questions such as:
How do you want to be seen?
What makes you unique?
What beauty do you see in the people around you?
They also gave away small, personalized mirrors for participants to take home as a reminder to love themselves.
Light snacks and refreshments were also available throughout the event.
Pop-Up Portraits
Our team of creatives built a beautifully designed set within the community room at Lakeview Library where family/friends/chosen family could sign up to receive a professional, 40-minute photo-shoot experience, including hair and makeup.
This event is part of the Library Takeover program. Library Takeover is funded by Madison Public Library Foundation and TruStage.
Today's photo prompt was city. We live in a really pretty city with a beautiful cathedral and a fantastic museum! I love it!
Photo 8 (Subject 7)
Prompt: Old Camera Assignment Prompt. I thought this matched this prompt due to the use of a polaroid. Polaroids are an older version of camera's that take time just to process one picture film. I got to watch this happen when this photo was taken. Then I snapped a photo of the polaroid photo and uploaded. If I were in the older days with older camera's and I had the resources for one picture I think I would've taken it of my team.
Where and When: Following our basketball game.
Why: I thought this is who I would want to be in the picture and thought the polaroid helped identify the use of an older camera.

I am participating in Folded Word's writing month event, called "24/7," during August. Participants spend the first 24 days of the month writing short works, then spend the final week in revisions. The second part of this entry gives more details.
I'm not required to give a central theme to the entries, but I chose the theme "Divinations" and am using a pair of dice to generate prompts. My prompt for August 12 is to write a divination-themed prose poem that uses earth. You can read the piece here.

Prompt 22: What are some things you need to challenge yourself to do this summer?
I love these meringue Spring sweets. When I discover them in the grocery shop I know Spring and Easter are near.
I seriously had a hard time thinking about this one! I want to be a mermaid, so naturally breathing underwater would be useful. And who says mermaids aren't super heroes? ;)
