Cultural and Entertainment Advocacy

Everytown works alongside actors, musicians, athletes, sports teams, content creators, and other cultural leaders to spotlight the impacts of gun violence and the ways to prevent it across the United States. Our work connects the creative community to actionable solutions that can drive social change. For teams ready to make a real difference, Everytown provides the expertise and reach to help.

Creative Council

The Everytown Creative Council brings together cultural leaders committed to helping end gun violence. Launched in 2015 in partnership with founding chair and Academy Award–winning actress Julianne Moore, the Creative Council offers members meaningful ways to leverage their platforms through direct connection to America’s largest gun safety movement and make real change.

Wear Orange

Wear Orange is the largest annual cultural campaign focused on ending gun violence. Every June, Wear Orange brings together volunteers, advocates, elected officials, athletes, cultural influencers, students, survivors, nonprofits, and corporate partners to #WearOrange and demand a future free from gun violence. It serves as a unique opportunity to engage massive, highly engaged audiences and amplify a nationwide movement. Wear Orange 2026 will take place June 5–7.

Music

Musicians and industry leaders partner with Everytown to give fans authentic ways to take action alongside the artists they love. We collaborate closely with teams to design opportunities that feel authentic to each artist, from custom PSAs and creative integrations to show-based activations or large-scale partnerships. Through their work with Everytown, musicians can help make communities safer while engaging listeners on one of today’s most urgent issues.

Sports

The Everytown Athletic Council collaborates with athletes and professional sports teams across all major leagues to turn their community leadership and influence into measurable impact at every level. We guide athletic organizations in launching grant programs and investing in local community violence interruption organizations. At specialty games, impact days, or training camps, our volunteers from all 50 states and Washington D.C. bring the gun safety message directly to fellow fans, creating meaningful opportunities for engagement. Everytown also supports individual athletes on and off the field. Whether representing Everytown during My Cause My Cleats, collaborating on PSAs highlighting secure gun storage, or sharing personal stories that give audiences a tangible connection to the realities of gun violence, athletes bring tremendous heart and authenticity to the movement.

Storytelling & Arts

We work with storytellers and artists to illuminate the full story of gun violence in America, from podcasts and television episodes to short films and feature-length projects. Our collaborations with writers, directors, and editors help shape narratives that resonate culturally and emotionally, ensuring these stories reach audiences in ways that are both memorable and trauma-informed.
