Bird was awarded the LEED_CI Gold Certification – NYC’s very first LEED-certified retail store.

While creative wedding photography paid the bills, it was her desire to make a difference that inspired the start of Revolution Media Project. In 2007 Dickson brought together photographers, videographers, and writers to shine light on the ignored elements of society. From street kids in Portland to pregnant teens to impoverished communities in Africa, Rev Media uses multimedia to, in Ms. Dickson’s words, “rescue the beauty.” Beyond highlighting complex human issues, Rev Media, wants to provide relief, and give artists the means to give back. <br /><br />How You Can Help<br />Buy a Photo <br />Visit the gallery of Ms. Dickson’s images from her first trip to India. All proceeds go to RevMedia’s next project there. www.TheRevMediaProject.com<br /><br />Reach Out, Give Back <br />“It takes a lot of being willing to give yourself and your time.

This Oscar winning actor’s role of a lifetime is playing eco-mom to her three young children. Julia says that she’s always been environmentally conscious, but it came more important to her after having her own children. <br /><br />Her philosophy on going green is to set goal that are achievable and then once she gets those down, she finds more achievable goals and keeps going. She notes, “If we all did a little bit at a time, it would be so impactful.” We hear Julia even makes her own eco-friendly cleaning spray, and has her own organic garden that helps get her kids to eat their greens.

Geiman’s eco-friendly art emerges from a folk art tradition infused with a contemporary, urban style. His intensity stems from the knowledge and respect for the earth growing up in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley raised by his father, who worked for the US Forest Service and mother, a watercolor artist.<br /><br />Art projects usually start with reclaiming pieces of the past such as salvaged wood, found objects, and other recycled materials for this eco-mixed media artist. Currently based in Chicago’s Sustainable Manufacturing Center, Geiman and his business partner and fiancée, Ali, are committed to being earth-friendly and encouraging other artists to become aware of the everyday materials they can recycle, reuse and, reprint. <br /><br />All boho readers are being offered a 10% off discount on all orders received from December through February.

She admits the medical staff was excellent, but the atmosphere was not very cheerful or comforting. As a former art teacher, she partnered with another parent to work on her first mural and in just a few years, now works with over 4,000 eager volunteers, including many popular celebrities such as Rob Thomas, John Mayer, Jon Bon Jovi, Rosie O’Donnell and Luciano Pavarotti who have contributed to several thousand paintings.<br /><br />These encouraging strokes of representation are now available along the pages of the heartfelt children’s book, The Journey of Hanna Heart wrote, illustrated and published by Sullivan. 100% of the proceeds go to Changing Images.
