We are proud to say we were the first public access option for free NARCAN® in the Twin Cities.
We are equally proud to say we aren’t the only ones.
It’s been one year since we put up the first box and in that time we have:
- Raised $15,000 for the purchase of NARCAN®
- Scaled to 3 harm reduction supply boxes in the metro area.
- Contributed 536 doses of NARCAN® to the Minneapolis community.
We are happy to report that nationwide fatal overdoses are down 3% from 111,029 estimated deaths in 2022 to 107,543 deaths in 2023.
In our home state of Minnesota, that number is estimated to have fallen by 7.5%.
We are heartened by the thought of positive change, but lives lost are still too high as long as that number is above zero. Thanks to everyone who has joined this fight in the past year and for giving what you can here: https://givebutter.com/c/overdose-prevention-project
It takes a village.

New client Batteries Plus – America’s positive connection for battery recycling – asked us to jump start their presence at Lambeau for Packers Family Night. Did we have a bunch of time to make it happen? NOPE. Did we put it through the uprights anyway? YOU BET. Two weeks from kick-off to activation might be a new record. The result? A bangin’ experience, a blossoming new partnership, and some sweet media coverage.

One was watched by billions on the world stage. The other reached a few hundred thousand in a regional skateboard tournament. But, only one was raided by river pirates. https://www.sixspeed.com/work/red-bull-mississippi-grind

What better way to prove that we’re an agency of action than to lean-in to an issue that has deeply affected both our team and our neighbors – the opioid epidemic. Learn more about the Overdose Prevention Project here: https://www.sixspeed.com/work/creating-overdose-prevention-project
Did we hire stone cold assassins or a new Producer and Senior Editor? Can’t tell. These new folks are killing it! ❤️🔥Welcome Danielle and Aaron.
Congratulations to our very own Grant Parsons for winning AdFed Minnesota's 2024 32 Under 32 Award. ⚡️With a drive that’s impossible to imitate, he consistently pushes the work as a creative thinker and leader. We couldn’t be more proud. 🤠 Cheers cap.

You know what they say, the group that saunas together stays together. In partnership with Firefly, we took part in a Fire and Ice experience for Mental Health Awareness Month. 🔥❄️The initiative aimed to give employees mental health tools to calm their nervous system while fostering a sense of adventure and connectivity.
Not a lot of seasoning brands start in a dive bar. This one did. Dan-O's Seasoning asked us to spice-up their Natural Products Expo West experience. So we designed and built them a dive bar where their leads could take a load off, tip one back, and slap a lip on the full flavor of Dan-O’s. https://www.sixspeed.com/work/turning-a-trade-show-on-its-head

Shooting some of the most capable Class B vans on the market (for some rad clients) was a highlight of last week. A few notable mentions include:
- Camping in 40 mph winds
- Trucking a port-o-potty off-road for hundreds of miles with minimal spillage
- Eating paella in a forest (it makes sense if you don’t think about it)
- Getting more than 12" of air jumping a 12,500lb vehicle
Thanks to Reunion, Jeff Johnson, Wilderness Collective, and Winnebago for a 10/10 experience!

Revel Stoke Whisky tasked us with celebrating “No F*cks Given” moments. In that spirit, we took a bigger, badder, bolder approach to lettin’ this poster rip.⚡️ Please enjoy responsibly.

We didn’t create Little Free Revivery to win awards. We did it because we saw a problem that has affected our coworkers, families and friends. We’re thankful for the recognition from AdFed Minnesota's The Show, but more importantly grateful that we get another opportunity to spread awareness for this project.

Sometimes it’s a little CMYK design exploration, other times it’s integrating a majestic horse or bad a$$ whip into a poster, and sometimes it’s all of the above. Poster Club baby!
