Art as Activism Poster Contest

High School Students Invited to Create Posters to Encourage Voting

Leading Ladies is the sponsor of an Art as Activism Poster Contest for high school students. Leading Ladies is a nonpartisan organization committed to encouraging people to vote and providing education that promotes action around issues that affect women and families such as homelessness, food insecurity, and access to quality education and medical care.

The challenge is to make posters that encourage people to vote in the 2024 elections. Posters can be in any media as long as they can be sent to us electronically. All the requirements can be accessed here.

The deadline for submissions is May 15th.
