Get Out the Vote: Poster Design-A-Thon

An AIGA Boston member event. Friends of members welcome!

Every four years since 2004, AIGA has challenged its members to help get out the vote. This year AIGA is asking its members to design and submit non-partisan posters to encourage voter registration and participation.

As part of the campaign, AIGA Boston is hosting a casual Get Out the Vote: Poster Design-A-Thon. Come meet and hang out with fellow members, ideate and create your poster, get feedback from the group, and submit your design. Represent Boston and contribute to the national effort to increase voter participation.

All posters submitted will be displayed in AIGA’s online gallery, and a selection of posters will be featured in exhibitions put on in connection to the Democratic and Republican national conventions, as well as at the AIGA Design Conference in Las Vegas this October. More info at aiga.org/vote

Bring pencil, paper, and laptop (with InDesign, if possible). We will provide additional materials for prototyping. Food and drinks will be provided.
