The Arts Resistance Collaborative (ARC) is a group of Exeter, NH artists and poets. Their mission is to create a community for arts expression as a response to social and political injustice.
“I can’t imagine not making art about what I find distressing. The horrific is being normalized at breakneck speed, and it’s important to call it out. We’re awash with injustice, hypocrisy, and brazen, unchecked criminality—and that’s just coming from the Commander in Chief.”—Ivan Ehlers
On the 6-month anniversary of Trump’s useless and damaging war of choice, folks in Exeter, NH were out there again supporting democracy and their first amendment rights. #ExeterNH #NHpolitics #NH #dontgiveup #voteDem @exeternhdems.bsky.social @indepthnh.bsky.social @maddow.bsky.social
Remember this?
dawoodward.bsky.social@dawoodward.bsky.social · 6mo agoThis was yesterday in #ExeterNH after many of us woke to the news that our country was at war with Iran. Democracy lovers are out there every week and barely had time to make new signs. What will it be next… #NHpolitics #NoKings #noFascism #ICEout @exeternhdems.bsky.social @maddow.bsky.social
Beautiful. Here's one! Blurry because with my phone at dusk. Another "dance" photo! Taken on the Squamscott River. #heron #birddance #ExeterNH

Cinde Warmington@cindewarmington.bsky.social · 2w agoWe’ve all seen what masked ICE agents have done to American citizens in the streets. Just imagine what would happen behind the closed doors of a human warehouse in our state. As ICE ramps up its operations across New Hampshire, Kelly Ayotte’s continued silence is deafening. #NHPolitics
#NHpolitics #Project218 I agree with this letter writer. I’m also sick of these dark money mailers with Dems smearing other Dems. Especially the Dems leading in the polls. www.pressreader.com/usa/portsmou...
Several of our members joined @gsnhindivisible.bsky.social and @exeternhdems.bsky.social yesterday at the Exeter NH Town Hall to show our support for our immigrant neighbors who have been harassed, kidnapped, and killed by ICE. We can't look away. #ExeterNH #resist #abolishICE #artanddemocracy
Meditative watching the sails go up …And now I know that we must lift the sail And catch the winds of destiny Wherever they drive the boat. To put meaning in one's life may end in madness, But life without meaning is the torture Of restlessness and vague desire… From “George Gray” Edgar Lee Masters

Exeter NH Democrats@exeternhdems.bsky.social · 2mo agoJoin @gsnhindivisible.bsky.social in front of Exeter Town Hall on Sun, 11 -12:30 for a vigil for victims of ICE violence. Come support our fellow citizens and neighbors who are being targeted and killed by ICE in Biddeford, ME, in Texas, and all across the country. www.mobilize.us/greaterseaco...
Such a great speech. If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him. We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth. #artanddemocracy #jfk #resist www.arts.gov/about/kenned...

“He’s setting the foundation for an attack on the election.” @samsteindc.bsky.social asks whether Trump could cite foreign interference to send federal agents after ballot boxes and disrupt the chain of custody. Rep. @jahimes.bsky.social says the scenario is “absolutely” realistic.

Thank you, Mr. Hernández, from my cat Kiké who was named AFTER YOU when you played w/the #redsox ! Wish more would do this, esp since Latino and Hispanic players make up nearly 30% of the MLB and 90% of ICE deportations. #kikéhernandez #catsagainsttrump #catsagainstfascism #nationofimmigrants
#NH "Art is the most powerful form of protest." Thank you to Miss Teen NH for visiting us at the #ExeterNH Independence Festival and delivering such wisdom. Our booth was full of art expressing our love of democracy and why we need to fight for it. #ARC #artanddemocracy
#NH Met wonderful people at our Amer Independence Fest tent yesterday, including great State Senator Debra Altschiller @debrasateam.bsky.social from @exeternhdems.bsky.social next door. Many people expressed interest and thanked us for using our art to foster awareness and love for our democracy.

When I saw the tv coverage of 5 year-old Liam standing silent & still in his bunny hat as masked ICE goons raided his home I thought of how scared he must have felt. This movie poster was to expose the cruelty, racism and truth that any immigrant is a target, not just criminals.~ARC member Rich Page
