Our next Human Banner is coming!
Saturday, October 17th, 11:00 am – 12:30 pm, Ocean Beach, SF, Stairwell 17
**Human Banner on Ocean Beach for National Day of Action – No Kings: Vote Early**
We have our permit in hand and drone pilots lined up.
**Join peaceful people from San Francisco Bay communities and all walks of life for a family-friendly, inclusive event on October 17th where we will create a new work of human art together on Ocean Beach. We have more power than we know!**
If you know you can join, please register – and share this invitation with your friends, family and neighbors too!
We joke that producing a banner is like preparing for a giant outdoor wedding, but never knowing whether a few dozen or a few thousand people will show up. Registering helps so much, thank you.
**Location**: Ocean Beach, SF – Stairwell 17
Directly across from the Beach Chalet — 1000 Great Highway, SF, CA, 94121 — closest intersection is Fulton and Great Highway.
**Timing**: Please plan to arrive at the Beach by 11:00 am to ensure we are all in place for photography by our drone crews at **11:30 am SHARP**. The event will wrap up by about 12:30 pm.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO REGISTER – Knowing how many people will attend really helps us with the banner design calculations. THANK YOU!

**We decide who represents us. We decide what comes next.**
For more than a year, millions of people have come together to reject the idea that power belongs to kings, billionaires, or politicians who believe they are above the people and the law.
Now, we are taking the next step, turning people power into voter power. Unlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings: Vote Early, is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it’s a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing **our community** together to make a plan to vote early and ensuring every eligible voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to make their voice heard.
Because no one person gets to decide our leaders before voters do. On October 17th, join us in local events across the country as we get out the early vote and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings.
*No Kings: Vote Early events are nonpartisan and are designed to increase participation from all eligible voters.*
*A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.*
