No H8 at Rutgers
Rutgers University’s Camden campus will host an open No H8 photo shoot from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. April 5.
The campaign seeks to promote marriage equality by photographing LGBTs and allies proclaiming the message “No H8.” The initiative was created in response to California’s Proposition 8, which overturned same-sex marriage.
Solo portraits will be $40 or $25 per person for couple and group shots.
Photos will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations required.
Participants should wear white to the shoot, and the “No H8” temporary tattoo will be provided on-site. The shoot will be held at Campus Center, 326 Penn St.
