PhotoBooth

The Claremont Museum of Art brings the PhotoBooth project to Claremont from 10am to 3pm tomorrow, October 19th and Saturday, October 20th in front of the Claremont Public Library at 208 N. Harvard Ave. in the Claremont Village.

The project is the brainchild of San Francisco photographer Christopher Irion. The first 200 people to show up will get their photos placed into a large mural that will be displayed in the east plaza of the Claremont Packing House beginning December 1st and running through at least December 16th.

The first 200 people get their photos up. No exclusions, no one gets edited out.
