LumenARRT! is a project of the Artists’ Rapid Response Team (ARRT!). We work through the Union of Maine Visual Artists (UMVA), a members’ organization that advocates for artists and furthers the work of progressive non-profits in the state of Maine. Our video projections, graphic design production, and interactive media projects create a visual voice for these organizations and like electronic graffiti, bring awareness to issues of social, economic, and environmental justice. In addition to issue-based messaging we acknowledge the growing need for community to be nurtured, celebrated, and supported. We welcome new members, if you seek to collaborate with others in shining a light on important issues for all of us, get in touch!
LumenARRT! and the Ideal Maine Social Aid and Sanctuary Band collaborated to create a joyful ruckus, encouraging people to vote this fall in Portland at the October Artwalk.

LumenARRT! has been creating and sharing Know Your Villain Cards far and wide. Activist kits are available on the website and they are making their way into conversations among concerned citizens even beyond the Maine borders. Fall 2025 was dubbed the “Fall of Freedom” and LumenARRT! participated in the nationwide project uniting artists, institutions and communities in a celebration of creativity and solidarity. Stay posted!
More to come. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and BlueSky, or contact us and join in! We look forward to seeing you on the street! You can find more images of our work on our website.
