Sample Non-Profit Campaigns

South Portland residents collaborated with ARRT! to create signs placed near survalance cameras. LumenARRT!, Maine’s projection art activist group, produced a moving video projection seen in the darkness. The city council voted to cancel the contract with FLOCK Safety after the campaign generated awarenss.

Members of a manufactured home park worked with ARRT! members to create a banner for their campaign. Corporations have been buying parks across the country and raising lot rents significantly – 0ften double! The group was able to save their community from a corporate take over through new legislation which enabled them to purchase the park. Other parks have followed their lead and are now community owned.

Sanford residents rallied to halt the quick approval of a proposed sludge processing facility in their community. The company proposed building a plant that would handle twice as much sludge a the entire state of Maine produces:  400 tons of sludge a day! They used the banner and signs to alert residents and collect signatures. The city council which had been supportive of the Aries project instituted a moratorium after the public outcry.
