Turn Beauty Inside Out Day coming up on May 18, 2005

Since 2001, girls around the country have been celebrating Turn Beauty Inside Out (TBIO) Day on the third Wednesday of May. TBIO was inspired by New Moon's first annual "25 Beautiful Girls" issue, published in May of 2000. Each year, girls and women around the nation develop TBIO Day events in their communities to educate the public about girls and media images. Here in Duluth, Minnesota, the New Moon girls are planning a community celebration for area youth. TBIO Day also is an opportunity for advocacy and personal action. Girls can get a free TBIO Day Action Kit from Mind on the Media that contains ideas and tips for planning and implementing successful TBIO Day activities.
