If you think your vote won’t count, just think about the thousands of others who will make a difference but share this sentiment. With just two weeks until Election Day, changemakers are betting on the belief that there’s still time to convince everyone to make a choice for the future of the United States.

This hope has been channeled into a new city-wide nonpartisan poster campaign called Vote Your Future in New York City. Launched by public art program Times Square Arts, with artworks curated by nonprofit social change design lab Amplifier Art, the initiative brings together nine diverse and emerging artists—Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya, Brooke Fischer, Carolyn Suzuki, Celeste Byers, Gillian Dreher, Kayla Jones, Laci Jordan, Never Made, and Shannon Finnegan—to illustrate voting posters that also embody equality and inclusivity.

The art is being displayed all around NYC, including Times Square, which still sees between 30,000 and 100,000 visitors despite the pandemic. Each visual arrives with a QR code that directs onlookers to vote.org for more information about the voting system.

The 17 posters can also be downloaded for free on the Amplifier Art website, with English, Mandarin, and Spanish language options available. Preview some of them below.
