According to the Voting is Sexy 2018 website, "We're a troupe of artists, designers, performers, and passionates organizing a high-energy, nonpartisan creative campaign this Fall."

The campaign is in the form of a class at the university.

Below is a part of the course description on the Stamps School website: 

"Do you believe in the power of voting? Do you want to be part of a super passionate creative team working to make voting irresistible? We need designers, photographers, illustrators, Instagram magicians, pop-up event geniuses, videographers, animators, social media stars, snappy writers, performers, and unabashed political nerds.

"Students in this team-based class will create a high-energy campaign of pop-up events, posters, video, social media and you name it. You're going to educate, entertain, motivate, inspire and enliven your peers all the way to the ballot box on November 6, 2018."
