Photograph a collection of yours as if it was a museum piece. Arrange two or more photos in a museum display.
Create a museum label that includes a description, artist, and date of the objects or display.
Clean up a park (or playground)
Spend 45 minutes or so cleaning a neighborhood park or playground. Bring your own garbage bags*, and wear disposable gloves to protect yourself. Check the air quality (wildfires are still a thing) and wear a mask if necessary. Create a photo collage of before and after pics.
*If the park has garbage cans, you can dispose of the trash there; otherwise take it with you to dispose of in your home trash can.
Collect items from nature – those already on the ground; avoid picking live plants and flowers. Once you have collected an amount that you find satisfactory, get some paper, get some glue, and create a collage. After the gluing, feel free to also draw, color, paint, whatever strikes your fancy.
Today is National Coloring Book Day! For regular readers, you will find a new downloadable coloring sheet on the sidebar link.
For the scavenger hunters:
Draw a coloring book page or coloring sheet. Post it in black and white so others can have fun coloring your page, and if you like you can color it and post that alongside the original.
Perform an act of kindness.
You decide the act, the receiver. You can photograph something that represents the act (but do not photograph the receiver unless they give you explicit permission). You may also write up a short blog post about the act of kindness and why you chose it and the receiver. You may include how it made you feel.
