Topic: Dress in Blue

The first Friday in March is National Dress in Blue Day. Everyone is encouraged to dress in blue for colon cancer awareness. The day was established to help encourage everyone to evaluate their risks and get regular screenings. Find or take a photo of someone wearing blue, like this dashing portrait of the ZMA’s founder Edward Ayers by E. Hodgson Smart, and post it to social media using #ZMAphotohunt.
