The latest on The Tent City Project: A podcast and the film sets to open

Welcome back to the Tent City Project blog. We've allowed the blog to lay dormant for a while, but we have a lot of news to offer and we want people interested in the project -- a film, photos and a book-length poem -- to have a place to stay on top of what we have happening and on what is happening in the tent encampment.

Jack's film is set to open Aug. 7 at the Two River Theater in Red Bank.

Here's the latest coverage of the project:

• NJ News Commons did a story on the project, focusing on my poem. You can read it here.
• NJ News Commons also did a podcast last week in which Jack, Sherry and I discussed Tent City. Get it here.
• NJ Discover previews the Destiny's Bridge film opening.
• Red Bank-Shrewsbury Patch previews the film opening.
• The Asbury Park Press previews the film opening.

Check back for more updates and a review of the film.

The Tent City Project is an artistic look at human rights issues facing residents of a homeless camp in Lakewood, NJ and its connection to the growing number of tent cities across the country. See our Facebook page for more information -- and don't forget to "Like" us.
