Steal this Idea: A Tangible, Interactive Get-out-the-Vote Poster Installation

In 2008, I curated a local exhibit of posters from AIGA's Get Out The Vote campaign. The exhibit hung on a coffee shop gallery wall maintained by a local art gallery, The Gogh-Getters. Each poster was hung in padded packets of six; 132 designs were hung for an offering of 792 posters. During election season, all of the posters were taken and replaced, for a total of 1,188 posters that were hung, removed, then distributed by patrons of the coffee shop.

This public service campaign was honored in the 2009 Communication Arts Design Annual. Go to #AIGAvote and curate your own local show!
