Vote Tree is a public art effort spearheaded by artist/activist Jacqueline von Edelberg. The project aims to drive civic engagement, amplify community voice, and celebrate emergent artists, especially women and artists of color.
BlockPower is a nonprofit focused on maximizing black voter turnout by empowering members of the community to become paid Voting Ambassadors. These change agents reach out to friends and neighbors about the importance of voting and in turn these people commit to reminding three more people to vote – thus tripling voter turnout.
Plus1Vote is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization* committed to creating a democracy that is more representative of its people. Through on-the-ground organizing and digital campaigning, we have built a movement to mobilize voters to bring a Plus1 to the polls.
Mutiny Artwrx is Atlanta’s for-profit art collective, offering artists opportunities to create and collaborate as well as sell and further their brand.
Change The Ref (CTR) was formed to empower our Future Leaders. CTR gives the kids of today the tools they need to be empowered to make changes to critical issues that affect our nation, through education, conversation, and activism. It uses urban art and nonviolent creative confrontation to expose the disastrous effects of the mass shooting pandemic.
