You can be a part of the national movement paying tribute to American leaders the way the Constitution was originally designed by contributing your artistic talents.
Most people say “I can’t dance and I can not draw.” The Constitution Arts Society says that there are no mistakes dancing or drawing. Those that do it well have had a little experience to have gained some courage.
WE WANT YOU!

March W. Chadwick, Architect
-
March is the founder of CA Society, with an active hobby making portraits, architect, and teacher. Owner of M.Arch Architects based in New York City and Chattanooga Tennessee. March often travels between the Northern and Southern United States. On these travels it can be observed differences. People are the same everywhere, they desire freedom to love, work, and raise healthy families.
Geography is different. The geographic history in the north is different, large prehistoric glaciers carved deep cuts in the earth’s crust creating the large modern ports capable of forming massive markets of trading goods around the world. These ports became hubs of communication where many languages were spoken and world markets of trade flourished.
By contrast the South had limited access to world markets but flourished in agriculture and cultivating families necessary to manage the land.
-
Observing this you can see the differences in people have a lot to do geography and the work they do on that land to pursue happiness and feed their families.
Observing how messed up the United States Congress appears in 2023 March decided to form a business teaching these skills (which are really just the act of doing and sharing good energy attempting to capture beauty) and practicing on a subject matter that is quite beautiful but rarely gets together. Congress does however get together bi-annually on the North Steps of the US Capitol in Washington DC for a public photograph. This bi-annual date varies but in 2024 it is January 8th. In hopes of making January 8th a more important date in US collective memory than January 6th March decided to recruit as many artists possible to join this collective effort to DRAW out Congress!

Developer of open government information sites such as https://prop.tidalforce.org/ Ralph was born in the computer age and grew up with a computer keyboard attached to his fingers. Ralph wrote one video game using a Radio Shack and a cassette tape drive and never wrote another game. The reason is that games are simply random number generated worlds that are a waste of the player's time. Ralph continued to love computer programming to this day, many decades later. After careers at IBM, Goldman Sachs (criminals), NYNEX / Verizon, Consolidated Edison, many small startup etc. and then some finance / computer companies and some non profit companies (some of the most wasteful companies are non profits).

Ben Droz worked as the lead lobbyist to legalize Industrial Hemp on the Federal Level from 2008-2016.
I taught myself how to be an effective non-profit lobbyist on Capitol Hill for federal legislation. I was able to build Congressional support over several years. With a solid base of bipartisan support, Senate Majority Leader McConnell felt comfortable taking the lead on the issue. On January 1, 2019, my work was realized, when the full legalization of hemp went into effect.

Photographer, Artist and Festival Producer, Roger’s prolific creative experience spans generations and genres. From creating one of New York’s first artistic film festivals with judges Andy Warhol, Gore Vidal and Milos Forman to producing rock concerts with the Doors, Four Seasons and Isaac Hayes nationwide, Roger identifies most as a cultural observer and photographic journalist.
His photographs documenting 60’s and 70’s music lifestyle, particularly those heralded during the Woodstock era, have been featured in various Hearst & McGraw Hill Publications to rock magazines.

Roger has now entered the next phase of his artistic career and is choosing to explore neo-pop mixed media, inspired by his own life, as well as current events, while simultaneously preserving the legacy of his work in photojournalism.

Influenced by my late father, illustrator and master artist Rafael M. deSoto, I began painting early in life. I studied architecture in NYC and abroad and have had the privilege of working with many premiere talents in the field.
-
John deSoto received early art instruction from his artist father, the late Rafael M. deSoto, and John deSoto's careers of art and architecture are interwoven reflecting his pursuit of relationships between functional space and artistic expression. In designing buildings, he perceives a facade as a blank canvas ready for a concept to be rendered.
On a painting surface, deSoto takes fragments of every day surroundings and renders them into pictorials, conveying time, place, and emotion. "As an Architect, I try to utilize the details that are in nature; my structures evolve out of an empirical process allowing the site to assist in the forms. When I paint I see the surface rich with opportunity to impart both practical element and sensual appeal, capturing light and color experienced anew."
A descendant of explorer Hernando deSoto, John deSoto has traveled in Europe and the USA and has designed several private residences in the states of New York, New Jersey and California.
