“It’s going to look something like this, which we did in Paris in 2015”
“Dear PoPville,
To keep up the pressure on Congress on gun control, we’re laying 1 pair of shoes on the Capitol lawn for every kid we’ve lost to guns since the Newtown shooting.
We’re collecting shoes from people across the DC area for the installation, which is going to be early next week! All shoes will be donated to DC area homeless shelters and charities.
Shoes can be donated at these locations through Sunday, March 11.
