Artist Kip Fulbeck gave an overview, talked about his process, and told stories about the participants.

Visitors can have an instant photo taken and answer the question "What are you?". Photos from participants will be displayed at JAMO as part of the exhibit.

The Hapa.Me Project will be up through August 13 with an Identity Workshop on June 24. Learn more at the link in our bio.
