2024 is a HUGE election year. To celebrate this election season and civic engagement, Save Our wild Salmon is excited to announce a special Get Out the Vote Poster Campaign, featuring VOTE posters with artwork by Northwest Artists Against Extinction 2024 Poster Competition winners: Cyaltsa Finkbonner (Lummi Nation), Mollie Brown, Antonia Prinster, and Kat Martin.

The Get Out the Vote Poster Campaign encourages people across the nation to vote with salmon, orcas, and rivers in mind this fall! This election will impact our future - recovery of salmon and orcas, the health of the air, lands, and waters where we live, and the opportunities and quality of life we seek for ourselves, our loved ones, and our communities. 

Thank you for VOTING!  

Spread the word to vote by wearing a VOTE shirt featuring Salmon Run artwork by Alyssa Eckert, Northwest Artist Against Extinction collaborative artist.

You can purchase this and other items at Save Our wild Salmon and Northwest Artist Against Extinction's official Bonfire storefront!
