Brenda Power and Shelly Hafford from Choice Literacy had the pleasure of joining our friends Gail Boushey and Joan Moser (“The Sisters”) at the “We Are One” flash mob gathering with children’s book author Amy Krouse Rosenthal at eleven minutes after 11:00 a.m. on 11/11/11. Hundreds of people gathered at Millennium Park in Chicago for a joyful and silly celebration.
This gathering was the culmination of Amy’s “Beckoning of Lovely” project, which has taken over three years to complete. If you are unfamiliar with the “Beckoning of Lovely” work, you can view a video about the first gathering on 8/8/8 at this link:

Here is the brief video we edited from our Flip video footage of the 11/11/11 celebration. It was a blast!
