Frequently Asked Questions about participating in the Community 100DayProject
I’m not an artist, can I still participate?
Participation is open to anyone! Children, elders, parents, lawyers, artists, teachers, managers, engineers, business people — anyone!
Do I need to make a piece every day?
You don’t have to complete a piece everyday. You need only to do hands-on work on your project everyday if you’re doing the Community 100DayProject. Be sure to track what you’re working on each day so you can see your progress. A journal works great for that, so does photographing your progress.
How much time do I need to spend each day on my project?
That’s up to you! Even 10 minutes a day of hands-on counts.
