In the lead up to the Marriage Equality vote on May 22nd a number of brilliant creatives have been using their expertise to promote and encourage people to get out and vote.
Have a look below at what’s caught our attention here.
NO LESS = NO MORE = VOTE YES
OFFSET 2012 speaker Niall Sweeney from design agency Pony, along with national treasure Panti, and all the Alternative Miss Ireland family have started a marriage equality campaign called No Less = No More = Vote Yes. Niall is doing a number of super designs to promote the May 22nd referendum date and a yes vote. You might of noticed them in your tote bags this year or on the main stage on the screen between each speaker!
#SHARE THE LOVE
Our neighbours here in Smithfield Dame Fine Print have asked artists to #ShareTheLove to help support the #VOTE YES campaign and ultimately encourage you and us to get out and ACTUALLY VOTE! OFFSET 2015 speaker Steve Doogan along with some other OFFSET favourites, have shown their hearts already and you can too!
The intention is to mass screen-print all the diverse love hearts in neon pink and red on an A3 or A2 poster and decorate Smithfield Square and beyond!
If you wish to #sharethelove and submit a love heart for this project then all you need to do is email a simple heart in your own style, A2 / A3, one colour and converted to BLACK to damnfineprint@blockt.ie You can sign your name on it too if you wish.
Format: B&W jpg / Tiff / PDF 300DPI and sized to print size or a vector PDF / Ai file.
If you want some LOVE for your bare walls, you can pick up these screenprints by dropping into BLOCK T and making a suggested donation for the YesEquality campaign.
So far artists who have contributed include Steve Simpson, Steve Doogan, ADW, Aoife Dooley, Hannah Doyle, Jacob Stack, and Clive McFarland, WATCH THIS SPACE for whats to come…

SOCIAL MEDIA PROFILES
A number of creatives have also been using their Social Media pages as a way to promote the referendum also.
