The Unconvention

The Unconvention is a “non-partisan collaboration for creative public participation in civic dialog.”

Make An Effort is a campaign for The UnConvention designed by Campbell Mithun to encourage Twin Cities residents to find their own unconventional ways to welcome the visitors who will be arriving for the Republican National Convention. The campaign does not ignore the undeniable irony of the Republicans’ choice to hold the convention here in Minnesota, and the entire tone of the campaign captures the unique brand of intelligent, rewarding creativity that Minnesota is justifiably world famous for.

Here’s an amusing clip from the campaign in which gay couples straightify for passing conventioneers.
