Test Run for the "BRAVE EVENT" September 27 by Lee Zimmerman The Brave event was a celebration/fundraiser for the 30th anniversary of the Domestic Abuse Intervention Program that was held on Saturday, October 23 in Duluth. For this event, I painted a thirty foot tower of silk in about an hour while being elevated on ropes. Because this has never been done before, I felt it was important for us to do a full out test run of the equipment and techniques well before the event. Below are a couple of images that were captured the night of the test run that give you a sense of the scale. At the bottom of this page there are two newspaper articles, one written before the test event and one written after. "It looks like you are creating a stain glass window" was the response of someone watching the test run. You can find a video and much more about this event HERE
