DEEDS: Art as Action

Inspired by the motto of the Suffragette movement, "Deeds not Words", and by the 100th anniversary of women getting the right to vote, Petaluma Arts Center is proud to announce a mobilization of artistry and community. Beginning on July 4th DEEDS : Art as Action will launch a multifaceted program intended to activate and inspire all who participate with the underlying call to action of getting out the vote in November.

Acting Local will be an online exhibition of artworks produced by local talent in this unprecedented time of sheltering in place, social unrest and protest. Talking Fence, inspired by and in support of, the Kindness Committee's fence at Leghorns Park, also a social sculpture, will begin its evolution on the cyclone fence at the PAC.

Truth to Power will showcase evocative works of the contemporary art world treading the challenging landscape of activism. This exhibition will live online and on view in the center, if permissible.

Get Out And Vote is a campaign featuring 8 new artworks to be displayed on the PAC outer walls for all to see and will create a collection of printed postcards, posters and lawn signs messaged specifically to get out the vote. The website will also include local and national get out the vote resources and get out the vote events will be planned as viable.
