What? Free “Family Photos” by the mantelpiece for all willing members of the Mission Hill (And Boston) community. As people come out from Easter mass at the basilica, I will offer them the chance to pose with other members of their neighborhood in front of a hand painted 8’x6’ backdrop of a fireplace and mantle as a faux-family. Each picture will include between 3-6 neighbors ranging in age and ethnicity. Mission Statement: With this event I wish to engage members of the Mission Hill community in an activity in which they voluntarily pose and associate themselves with their neighbors, instating a message of family orientation and values within the community.
