Campaign Next Steps

Join the AIGA MN Get out the Vote campaign to encourage voter participation. We are launching a new initiative focused empowering people to vote, especially those who haven’t voted in the past or are challenged to vote in 2020. While our efforts are focused on Minnesota and the region, we hope this effort will involve anyone in the creative community.  

We are looking for volunteers who can help us:

    • create our campaign approach 

    • design the branding and tagline for the campaign

    • create communications for the initiative

    • deploy the campaign across multiple channels

    • find other agencies we can partner with that will increase the reach of the campaign.

Join our committee to make a difference this fall!  

Meeting Details

The kick-off meeting will be a Zoom call. Everyone in the creative community is welcome to attend.
