With the launch of their new campaign "Create a better tomorrow,
tonight", Absolut wanted to show the world that they were actively doing
just that. Not just talking the talk, but walking the walk. And what better way
to create a better tomorrow than by harnessing the power of creativity for the
greater social good?
In 1 night, 7 artists from 7 different communities all around the world were
united in a global creative movement - A Night For Change. Each artist created
a mural shining a light on a challenge their community faces, all of which were
issues that align with Absolut's key beliefs of freedom of expression, global
unity, gender equality and environmental sustainability. From China to Canada,
these artists represented their communities on a global platform with murals
that depicted their vision of a better tomorrow for their hometown. Their
messages spoke of better tomorrows where we live in harmony with nature, where
we are all free to express ourselves, where we overcome our differences and
focus on what unites us.
Beyond the murals, Absolut worked with each artist - listening to their
experiences and learning about the community's needs. They sponsored community
initiatives, led by the artists themselves in relation to the challenges their work
had brought to light. Workshops, community gardens, drum circles and street art
initiatives were created for the communities, by the communities. Absolut took
a tangible step towards creating a better tomorrow for them.
