We Dissent Fundraiser

Role Art Director, Designer, Illustrator
Services — Merchandise Design, Signage Design, Social Media Design
Challenge — Create a unique keystone graphic for the local fundraiser We Dissent hosted by Bier Station. The fundraiser came about after the overturning of Roe Vs Wade in the summer of 2022 with the goal to raise donations for Planned Parenthood Great Plains, Missouri Abortion Fund, and Cornerstones of Care. We had one week to create visuals with enough time to share the event and meet printing deadlines.
Concept — Dissenting means to disagree with the methods, goals, etc. of a political party or government, and I wanted to embody this idea visually with the phrase “We Dissent” framed by leafy vines warping to show this government break down.

I was heavily influenced by several punk band and anarchist visuals.

The original refined sketch on the left above showed the original life of the community while the sketch on the right breaks this down into something more chaotic, showing a struggle.

We sold event shirts as well as posters during a pre-sale and at the event alongside several other vendors totaling over $19,000 in donations!

Over $19,000 in donations.

Special thanks goes to

  • Lauren Herrmann, for introducing me to this fundraiser and being a great collaborator and event director

  • Bier Station, for hosting an incredibly meaningful event, even when receiving community backlash

  • Oddities Prints for printing these baller posters and shirts
