Do your part to encourage a strong voter turnout from Ohio’s creatives by hosting an ArtsVote Ohio Postcard Party. This is a fun way to gather friends, fellow creatives, and community members to encourage local artists to make a plan to vote.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • ArtsVote Ohio will provide:
    • Postcards with art by Ohio artists for your event, with suggestions for messaging.
    • Guidance on partnering with a local arts not-for-profit to get a mailing list of area artists (if you need it)
    • Marketing tools (language and graphics) to help promote public events.
    • Event promotion on the ArtsVote Ohio event calendar (for public parties).
    • Listing of participating businesses and nonprofits on the artsvoteohio.org website as partners.
  • As the host, you’ll need to:
    • Provide the location and postage.
    • Make initial contact with the local arts non-for-profit of your choice (if you aren’t a not-for-profit host)
    • Invite your friends or community members.
    • Customize your event—keep it private or open it up to the public!

Postcard Parties can be as simple or creative as you’d like. Gather around a table or host a bigger event—either way, you’ll be helping Ohio’s creative community make their voices heard at the polls.

ArtsVote Ohio needs one week’s notice to provide postcards for a Postcard Party. Postcard Parties are available September 25 through October 29, 2024.
