Being introduced to methods of taking pictures and using them to exhibit different ideas has helped me expand my voice and open myself to new opportunities.

My name is Celeste and I am an artist in many ways. Community gardens are important because they provide fresh fruits and vegetables at walking distance. They can bring our communities together and teach us how to turn nothing into something. I took photos of plants and people that are slowly, but surely making a difference. My photos of plants and bees show that these things are important to each other and to us and how community gardens are just one of many ways to make change. What I am fighting for are several things. One of the main things is education of health and nutrition in our schools and communities. Whether it is planting fruits and vegetables or healthy cooking classes. I want to open my neighbors, friends and family up to what we're really getting from the world, and how we can make things better.
