PROJECT OVERVIEW

Culture 2024, a new collaboration from Drive Agency and TaskForce, is deploying the largest and most sophisticated cultural organizing effort to ignite voter registration and turnout within key communities and geographies this November. Our objective is to engage a broad network of cultural voices to speak to critical audiences — Black, Latino, and young voters (18-35 years olds) in Charlotte,, Milwaukee, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and Atlanta — about the issues they care about most, and convert them into voters. Culture 2024 will partner with creatives, creators, cultural influencers and leading voter engagement organizations, to create a layered approach to reaching these audiences in the cultural spaces they frequent in their communities and online, and registering and mobilizing them to vote.

We are seeking a talented group of campaigners to join Culture 2024 as part of a team of organizers, creators, and strategists helping to bring this initiative to life. The campaigner in each city  will be responsible for project managing the planning and execution of the campaign in (geographic region) and will report directly to the Campaign Director of Culture 2024.

Culture 2024 is a joint effort between Drive Agency and Task Force — two leading social impact agencies who have come together to make a critical difference this election cycle.
