Community Vaccination Art Program

Encouraging Vaccinations Against Covid-19

In the summer and fall of 2021, Amplifier inspired people to get vaccinated against COVID-19 with public art in 12 cities across the U.S. and Canada, including Chicago, Detroit, Edmonton, Jacksonville, Los Angeles, Mesa, Montreal, Ottawa, San Bernardino, San Antonio, Seattle and Washington, DC.

This program commissioned artists local to each city to create artworks for neighborhoods with lower vaccine uptake rates. These public artworks were positioned in community gardens, parks, and small businesses, and was accompanied by a social media campaign to help spread the message far and wide.

In the summer of 2022, as a follow up to our work last year, Amplifier is partnering with the CDC Foundation to continue our vaccine awareness PSA’s in Mesa, Arizona and Jacksonville, Florida.  This program includes commissioning artists local to each city to create artworks for neighborhoods with lower vaccine uptake rates. These public artworks will be positioned in community galleries, public spaces and small businesses, and accompanied by a social media campaign to help spread the message far and wide.
