Mobile Loaves & Fishes Blog: Austin's Own Joe Ely and Mobile Loaves & Fishes

Austin's Own Joe Ely and Mobile Loaves & Fishes - Rockin' to Change the World

Last night DJ Stout former art director for Texas Monthly Magazine unveiled the 39th edition of the Pentagram Papers published by Pentagram Design. Pentagram Design is a worldwide premiere marketing and branding agency.

The premise for this years Pentagram Papers was based on Joe Ely's collection of panhandling signs over the years. You see Joe was homeless homeless himself for about 8 years and has a servant heart for these brothers and sisters. When DJ also discovered that famed Austin photographer Michael O'Brien had been taking photographs of the homeless at the behest of Mobile Loaves & Fishes and already had a library full of awesome and poignant photographs the project was on. Joe Ely's signs were photographed by another famed Austin photographer Randall Ford. Randall photographed all of the images for Roy Spence's famed "Amazing Faith of Texas". You can learn more about the project by going to http://pentagram.com/en/new/austin/.

I shot a little video at the party of Joe playing one of his new songs. Please enjoy.

Do you have a viable business but lack the necessary finances to get it off it’s feet?
