Artist Jen Jacobs, who has been living with type 1 diabetes since the age of 12, is launching a new diabetes art project. And the best part is that it involves you! Jen is reaching out to members of the diabetes community and asking us to e-mail a declaration to her. Please send one sentence to Jen about what diabetes means to you. It’s that simple. Her goal is to gather unique perspectives from all over the world and unify them into one large mixed-media art piece.
For more information about the art project and how to participate, click here.
You can also visit Jen’s website for more information: www.diabetesart.
Please help spread the word about this by reaching out to any and all who might be interested in participating.
My diabetes has turned into my personal motivator; to be aware, to be active, and to keep fighting to maintain a healthy and high quality life.
