Create Protest

Create Protest is an online marketplace for message merchandise designed by artists. Launched in 2020, a critical election year, Create Protest leverages the power of the arts to help us all speak out, speak up, campaign, and to share values of inclusivity, respect, equal representation, and fairness. Create Protest is a community of individuals with something to say, and a will to act. Wear your message on our artist-designed merchandise. Take action through the resources on our site. Participate in elections, mobilization efforts, and creative & communal happenings. A community of individuals makes a powerful society of messengers. We have brought together an inspiring group of artists from Los Angeles (CA), Arizona, Texas, and Kentucky. Our goal is to leverage the power of their designs to motivate us all to vote, to unite, to Create Protest. Their work is printed on merchandise you can wear, carry, use at your home and office, and give as gifts. We hope that you are as emboldened by their designs as we are, and that they convey the messages that you want to shout out at this crucial time in our country’s history. Our artists receive a percentage of every sale, and your purchase supports their work. Take a look at their social media links on the bio page and learn more about the great work that they are doing in different states across the country. We want to hear from you! What messages do you want our artists to design that you can wear? Have an inspiring story/artist or resource for our blog, Create Action? Email us at contact@createprotest.org and let’s see what we can create together! If you have a photo of yourself wearing/using our merch, send it over and we may use it on social media!
