The Nasher Museum and Duke Arts have teamed up with the student-run North Carolina Young People's Alliance (NCYPA) and along with POLIS, DukeVotes, the Duke Student Wellness Center and others, to organize a campus-wide Democracy Day on Friday, October 28.

Democracy Day will feature voter registration, organized walks to early-voting sites, educational programming and other activities related to civic engagement.

At the Nasher Museum, students are invited to use colored pencils and crayons to activate voting-themed posters designed and screen printed by Duke Professor and master screenprinter Bill Fick.

Inside the Nasher Museum, students are invited to help activate the "Democracy Wall," a monumental collage of with screenprinted posters.
