Announcing: No Kings Protest Sign Contest
Enter tonight!
Friends, I know many of you attended a “No Kings” protest today and brought some amazing protest signs.
In fact, according a press release from the No Kings Coalition, nearly seven million people attended a protest today, two million more than the last “No Kings” protest day in June. Pretty damn amazing.
So, I’m thinking: why not celebrate by recognizing the creativity on display?
I’m pleased to announce the Oct. 18th “No Kings” Protest Sign Contest!
There will be six prizes:
The Grand Prize Winner will receive $1,000 for their sign.
Five Runner-Ups will receive $100 each for their signs.
Okay, but what’s the catch?
There’s no catch.
It’s free to enter. I judge the entries. All I need is an image of your sign and your email. I’ll contact the winning entries via email.
The deadline to enter is TONIGHT, 10/18, by 11:59 pacific time.
Prizes will be announced at 7pm ET on 10/20 (that’s Monday) across social media and a few minutes before that in a blog post here on Charlotte’s Web Thoughts.

This contest is not affiliated with any organization. It’s just me showing some love for great protest signs because we’re nine years into this—with many millions of protest signs to show for it—and Lord knows we could use the excuse to encourage joy and creativity.
Again: winners will be announced at 7pm ET on 10/20 across my social media and in a blog post here on Charlotte’s Web Thoughts.
Send me your signs!
I can't wait to see the winning signs. What a great idea. It was pouring rain in St Louis County but I stood in one of protests with a couple thousand people, an inflatable unicorn and a pig. It was great.
We had a pink Axolotl, a small Minion, three dinosaurs and a frog. I'm terrible at guessing crowd size, but if you made me, I'd say there were at least a couple hundred people there. People were still showing up in a small but steady stream when we left and one of them was a woman with a cowbell, which we heard as we drove off. People were happy to be there and spirits were high. I'd say the majority were older folks but really there were representatives from every age group. The Sheriffs who were there to watch over us were mostly unmoved by it all, but one did give a small thumbs up as he drove by. I'll take it.
