“Complete the Circle” is an exciting family-oriented community service project and food drive that brings together more than 1,000 community members from all over the region to benefit neighbors in need. On November 9, 2014, my winning design was recreated as a “living painting” on the Fairfax High School practice field, as hundreds of community members dressed in event shirts “colored” the image and were then photographed from 80 feet above by artist Daniel Dancer of Art for the Sky. All participants were asked to donate $5 for their “Complete the Circle” shirt as well as provide three or more non-perishable food items and/or household necessities to serve as the outer rim of the living painting. Together, we “completed the circle” of giving to provide help and hope to local families and children facing hunger.
