With the US election looming large this fall, artists are mobilizing in different ways to help raise awareness about the importance of voting.
One civic-minded group of artists and creatives have launched “Give A Damn. Vote”
This is precisely the collaboration of minds that we need to be effective with our goals. Graffiti artist and designer Oliver Rios recently joined the “Give A Damn. Vote” initiative – and he shares with us his new design.
“I’m motivated to create the designs I do because the 2020 election is too important to not be involved,” Mr. Rios tells us. “Give A Damn Vote is not the answer to all our worries. But hopefully, it becomes a small part of the many, many efforts that will be necessary for the political outcome we so desperately need. I want I wanted to look at my kid and say ‘I tried’ and failed – versus having tried nothing at all.”
