It was nearly 12 years ago that an artist came to Cleveland and took an iconic picture of thousands of people in the nude on the East 9th Street pier. 

Now the man behind that photo is coming back to Cleveland the week of the Republican National Convention to snap another picture!

This time, Spencer Tunick's photo will feature feature just 100 naked women holding large mirrors.

According to Tunick, the mirrors will reflect "the knowledge and wisdom of progressive women and the concept of “Mother Nature” into and onto the convention center, cityscape and horizon of Cleveland."

If you're interested in stripping down, you'll have to submit an online application online, with a full length photo of yourself. This ensures where will be a wide variety of body types and skin tones. You do not have to be naked in the photo you submit. 

Selected participants will be contacted by email prior to July 10 with location info, the date and time and other instructions.

Even though the event is during the RNC, all political parties are welcome to participate.
