Tainan Try Shoot+ Meets Earth Art Festival

PeoPo's latest Try Shoot+ event was held at the Tsung Yeh Arts & Cultural Center in Matou, Tainan. Citizen journalists from across the country explored the Grade III monument, a former sugar factory now restored as an art exhibition space and the primary venue for the Mattauw Earth Triennial. The site features a giant sika deer sculpture in the park, symbolizing the re-emergence of Siraya's vitality in Tsung Yeh.

PeoPo’s commitment to spreading local culture and community stories and collaborating with community colleges countrywide in organizing Try Shoot + events has led to a growing army of citizen journalists. Their participation in this Try Shoot+ event allowed them to align with the eco-art movement while witnessing the successful transformation of Tsung Yeh Arts & Cultural Center and the power of art in action.

當台南Try拍 遇上大地藝術季

PeoPo來到位於台南麻豆的「總爺藝文中心」舉辦Try拍活動，一早就有來自各地的公民記者前來參與，藉由導覽員的帶領了解台南麻豆的總爺藝文中心。這裡早期是一座糖廠，由於歷史悠久，建築也被訂為三級古蹟，如今也修繕成藝文展覽空間，同時也是三年一期麻豆大地藝術季的主場域，另外園區內草地上的巨大竹編梅花鹿則象徵總爺再現西拉雅的生命力。

PeoPo多年來致力於傳遞在地文化及小故事，並與各地社區大學合作協辦了多場的Try拍活動，使在地的公民記者逐年的增加。而這次公民記者參與Try拍活動是一場參與生態藝術行動，同時也見證到總爺藝文中心的成功轉型以及藝術展現的行動力。
