Looking to help in the Georgia run-offs? This guide can help.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We asked our Unstoppable Voters<\/a> grantee, Georgia artist Gabrielle Mertz, to draft a guide to the Georgia run-offs for people who want to help. You can read her guide here<\/a>. We\u2019ve highlighted excerpts below, with our extra special input on the creative activism part of the equation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Georgia-based creative people – this guide can provide information and action-based tools related to the upcoming GA Senate runoffs and voter turnout activity more generally. If you\u2019re an artist, designer, creator, agency or just someone who wants to be involved<\/strong> in getting out the vote the Creative Action Election Guide can provide a starting point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why artists and creatives?<\/strong> Because we have enormous power. Our messages, visuals, stories and songs move<\/em> people. You can use your superpowers of delight and surprise to make real change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elections and activism are moving targets! Gabrielle and the Center for Artistic Activism have tried to provide the most current info available. Gabrielle will endeavor to update her guide when possible. We encourage you to always double-check any items before using in case they have changed. We also welcome hearing any thoughts, feedback, and other input, so please feel free to contact us<\/a> or tell us if you think we missed something. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
