  • Description

    The ‘Get your shot, Take your shot!’ campaign aims to spread accurate health education information to the University of Florida student body and encourage vaccination via a campus-wide arts and health initiative. The project will consist of two phases: a vaccination and photoshoot event, a campus-wide art campaign, and an outdoor public art event. Giuliano De Portu, photographer and Shand's ER doctor, will be taking portraits of students who get vaccinated on the day of the event. Students will be able to have their picture taken with and without a mask. A mobile vaccination bus will be providing students with the first and second doses of the covid-19 vaccine. Students can also be photographed if they present proof of vaccination. The second phase of the event will be 3 weeks after the first event, which aligns with the date of the second dose. Participants will receive a copy of their portraits, and they will also be given the opportunity to participate in a campus-wide art campaign. Campaign images will form part of an exciting, outdoor public art event! Lastly, students who participate in the art campaign will receive a high quality print of their portrait.
