Work alongside artists Wildcat Ebony Brown and Lynore Routté to make your own Wide Awakes cape. Blank capes and supplies provided. Everyone can be a Wide Awake!
The Civil War-era Wide Awakes started as an abolitionist youth group in 1860. Wearing capes and carrying lanterns they marched for voter registration and political activism. Today's Wide Awakes are "an open-source network who believe in the power to radically re-imagine the future through creative collaboration."
