The NOH8 Campaign is a photographic silent protest created by photographer Adam Bouska and partner Jeff Parshley in 2008, in direct response to legislation intending to ban marriage equality.  Photos feature subjects with duct tape over their mouths, symbolizing their voices being silenced, with “NOH8” painted on one cheek in protest. 

The NOH8 Campaign has grown from a grassroots groundswell into a charitable organization whose mission is to fight for marriage, gender and human equality through education, advocacy, social media, and visual protest. NOH8 has hosted photo shoots in 48 of the 50 states in the US, and 20 countries around the world, and has captured over 56,000 faces.

So– are YOU ready to lend your look to the fight for equal rights? Plymouth Pride is hosting celebrity photographer and NOH8 co-founder Adam Bouska for a NOH8 campaign photo shoot in Plymouth on Sunday September 8th, from 2pm to 4pm at Hotel 1620 in Plymouth Harbor. The cost for a solo photo is $40 and for couples or groups, just $25 per person. No reservations are needed, just arrive dressed in a plain white shirt and ready to strike a pose. Photos are on a first come first serve basis –   you’ll arrive to fill out a model release, complete payment, and receive the famed duct tape and NOH8 temporary tattoo to complete the signature NOH8 look! All money raised at this event goes towards the continued fight for human equality, anti-discrimination and anti-bullying. For more details visit the NOH8 organization’s website at noh8campaign.com
