Fancy Rooftop Birthday Shindig
I put this together for an event that, sadly, didn’t come to fruition, but I really liked the idea of it (and hope we can resurrect it again!) Event description provided by Chloë Bass. The rest is my design, including the photoshopped birthday hat on our farm mascot, Boswyck T. Sheep.
Fundraising with Food
In 2012, Boswyck Farms partnered with EcoStation:NY on the Bushwick Campus Greenhouse Project. I created this design for a fundraiser where local eateries agreed contribute a percentage of their revenue on the day of the event to the project.
Skopje Squirrel Charity Tournament
The Skopje Squirrel event was a clothing drive/basketball/soccer tournament, all volunteer-run on a budget of $0. It worked thanks to a lot of generous donations and a host of local student and Peace Corps volunteers.
“Why a squirrel?”, you may wonder.
We were hard pressed to find a better S animal. Salamander? Snake? We were also conscious of the fact that it had to sound reasonable catchy in Macedonian too. Squirrel it was.
So I drew up this beefy squirrel dude to represent.
Bonus:
I also made 3 trophies for the event winners from paper mache, to match our logo. (Very serious about that budget of $0). Here I am with the Bronze Medal Trophy Squirrel before it was awarded to the winning team:
Seks i Zdravje
While in the Peace Corps in Macedonia, I served on the volunteer-run Sexual and Reproductive Health Education Committee (SRHEC). We partnered with a Roma organization on the outskirts of Skopje and led short workshops for teens about Love & Peer Pressure, AIDS and STI Prevention, Men’s and Women’s Health, and Whole Body Fitness. I designed this flier (in both English and Macedonian) about the workshops.
