Springtime means planting time, friends and neighbors – and we're tending the garden as well at ARTivism Virginia, where we're plowing into another year of resistance to new fracked gas infrastructure in Central Appalachia and the Piedmont. 

We're pushing ahead in the fights against the MVP Southgate and Transco SSEP pipelines – and are helping to organize community members, regional advocates and allies to stop the proposed MVP Boost project and its Swann Compressor Station planned for Eastern Montgomery County, Virginia. With an experienced and passionate coalition, we hope to continue to strengthen that organizing through our support in the arts.

Through donations to ARTivism, we're able to collaborate with and uplift the work of our coalition partners through visual arts, graphic design, music, spoken word, film, photography, event planning and production, messaging strategy, outreach and so much more – connecting artists to activists and creating welcoming invitations for both newcomers and longtime movement friends.

**If you would like to plant some seeds as well this spring in bolstering our long term arts and organizing work, please consider becoming a monthly supporter of ARTivism!**

ARTivism Seedtime Funding Drive

ARTivism Virginia creates supported connections between artists and activists in the fight against new fossil fuel infrastructure.

Since 2017, ARTivism has been collaborating with artists and activists to support coalitions of grassroots organizations, regional advocates and national allies to fight new fracked gas pipelines, power plants and compressor stations in Appalachia and the Piedmont. We’ve successfully assisted in the campaigns against the canceled Atlantic Coast Pipeline, Chickahominy Pipeline and Power Station, and continue to serve in the long fights to defeat the Mountain Valley Pipeline, the MVP Southgate extension, the proposed MVP Boost and Swann Compressor Station, as well as the the Williams Transco SSEP.

Our services have included coordinating grassroots outreach and collaboration, event production, film & photography, messaging strategy, graphic design, music, art, dance, puppetry, set decoration, audio reinforcement, spoken word, stage management, and more.
