Each participant will receive two professional digital portraits on the spot, while also contributing to a collective mural that will represent the people and spirit of the Fargo-Moorhead region.
This is a chance to be included in a large-scale public art installation that celebrates identity, belonging, and community pride. Madson’s work has grown into a nationwide movement, capturing thousands of individuals and turning their stories into powerful visual experiences displayed in prominent public spaces.
