11 inches by 17 inches poster with an orange background featuring a stylized image of Grant Wood's painting American Gothic but with the two figures wearing "I VOTED" buttons. Underneath the image of the painting are the words "AMERICANS FAVOR CANDIDATES WHO SUPPORT DOUBLING FEDERAL ARTS FUNDING TO $1 PER CAPITA.", "An overwhelming majority of Americans see the arts as important to improving education, quality of life, and the economy. People who participate in the arts are also more likely to vote.", "LISTEN. REFLECT. CHOOSE. VOTE ART." Below this are the dates and locations for the 2016 Republican and Democratic National Conventions. The lettering is white except for the dates, which are in yellow. The bottom of the poster features a white stripe with the logos for Americans for the Arts ACTION Fund and AMERICANS for the ARTS, along with where to get further information.
