“This is my DC-Metro themed Peep’s diorama entitled “Peeps on the Platform.” Startled peeps are standing on the platform at the L’Peep Plaza metro stop, which is single-tracking and experiencing delays as smoke creeps into the tunnel. Above ground, Police Peeps have blocked off the station with caution tape as a small group of Protesting Peeple have begun to gather.”
All entries should be emailed to [email protected] with ‘The PoP Peep Project’ in the subject line. Please include a brief description about your entry and please include 2 photos, one closeup and one capturing the whole scene. Entries should be based on local topics of interest if possible and sent by Friday, April 28th. Depending on how many I receive, I’ll try to post all as I get them. I will then pick 5-10 finalists that you guys will vote on. I will take the winners out to dinner (courtesy Carmine’s Family Style Italian Restaurant) and drinks (unless the high school kids win, then just dinner.) I will also bury the winners (and 2nd and 3rd place) in PoPville t-shirts. Good luck!!
