Candid City Project

Michael and I are launching a program called the Candid City Project in a school in Hartford and Mumbai. Our goal is to bridge cultural understanding between India and the United States through creative exchange. By sharing photographs taken with 24-exposure, one-use cameras, students in Mumbai and Hartford will have the opportunity to interact with each other as e-pen pals and to discuss their cities, lives, and surroundings as seen through the images. By doing so, students will engage in open and creative dialogue about a distant and perhaps unknown place while also becoming more aware of their own community. In an increasingly global and urban world, the Candid City Project seeks to open students to the amazing diversity in the world and break down misunderstandings or stereotypes through direct interaction.
