Okay, yes. 2017 sucked. But 2018 is an opportunity to do something incredible

One way or another, this will be a pivotal year for racial justice, immigration, voting rights, healthcare, education, and LGBTQ+ equality. So this year we all need to step up and commit to whatever political and social good we can handle. 

That’s the idea behind the first ever Art Action Day this Saturday, January 20.

What is Art Action Day?

Art Action Day is an opportunity to speak out and make a commitment to action in 2018. With our friends at The Federation, we’re asking you to post about your vision for 2018, and—more importantly—how you’re committing to making that future a reality.

On Saturday we’ll signal boost your posts on and off Tumblr to inspire others.

How you can participate:

You can draw, make a gif, write a song or a poem—anything you want! The prompt is simple:

What do you want the headlines and history books to say about 2018? And what will you do to make it happen?

Maybe it’s helping to pass the DREAM Act or electing a gender-balanced Congress. Maybe it’s ending the stigma around mental illness. If we all commit to doing one thing this year, 2018 will be a very good year.

How to submit:

If you want us to signal boost your post, submit it to action.tumblr.com/submit.

You can also just tag your post #ArtActionDay and #WhatWillYouDo.
