A mural-style advertisement appears to be going up on the northeast side of the Dance Institute of Washington building. The ad is promoting the PBS American Portrait effort, which is a storytelling initiative by PBS. PBS American Portrait features a collection of stories contributed by people all over the country and is intended to be a portrait of what it really means to be American today.
Anyone can share a story. The stories are organized into collections according to the prompt:
- For my people….
- I stand for…
- Looking ahead, I…
- My life right now…
