Thanks to one of the wonderful people I met during July's Texas Transgender Non discrimination Summit, Texas A&M's Lowell Kane, was made aware of the NOH6 Campaign making its way to Aggieland for the FIRST OFFICIAL NOH8 photoshoot in the state of Texas!
See, we're not all right wing knuckle-dragging know-nothing GOP voting bigots in the Lone Star State. But I digress.
Back to the regularly scheduled post.
There will be a NOH8 Campaign photo shoot at Texas A&M University in College Station, TX on October 4. 2010 from 4:00 PM CDT - 7:00 PM CDT.
The location for the photo shoot will be Texas A&M University's Rudder Theater, 200 Discovery Drive, College Station, TX.
On MONDAY, October 4th, the NOH8 Campaign will set up our studio at Texas University in Rudder Theater in College Station, TX opening up the opportunity to join the campaign to Texas area supporters!
...The photo shoot is scheduled to begin at 4 PM and end at 7 PM. We will do our best to make sure everyone in line by 7 PM will get their photo!
Anyone that would like to join the NOH8 Campaign is asked to wear a plain white shirt to match the look of the signature NOH8 photos.
Solo NOH8 photos will require a minimum donation of $40 per person while any group or couple photos will require a $25 donation per person in the photo.
Adam Bouska will be working around the clock to photograph 5-10 frames for each person that comes through. The final selection he chooses will be retouched and made available to you through the www.NOH8Campaign.com website!
