About
Why "Shake the Field"?
Change is disruptive. And to be disruptive, you have to shake things up. Shake the Field is the plug to the tools, resources, and the people needed to make disruptive change in Alabama. We promote the intersection of civic engagement and culture. We believe in equipping the creative, athlete, artist, community organizer, and neighbors with tools to Shake the Field.
Our Mission
To create an encouraging and fun space for Alabamians aged 18-45 to cultivate pro-democracy civic identities and relationships, while also embracing a commitment to long-term investment in Alabama’s civic engagement, artistic, and cultural communities.
