If you’ve been more stressed out over the last few weeks than you’ve been stressed out over the last few years, welcome to the club. With the U.S. election today, nerves are at an all-time high amid the rise of fascism, continued racism and injustice, and the global pandemic, among other things. We need to keep fighting, no matter the outcome of this election, but even the most hardened, energetic, passionate justice seekers need a mental break to reconnect with themselves, shut off screens, and simply be. Enter: this election year’s roundup of free coloring pages.

These free coloring pages come from across the internet and feature designs that range from simple to intricate. They are both fun and meditative, meant to help you step back for an hour, two hours, or a whole evening and sooth your nerves, even just a tiny bit.

I’ve done what I can to trace these free coloring pages back to their creators, but it’s not always possible.

Grab your colored pencils, markers, and crayons and let your creative self be free. Note: you will want to download these images, which are 700 pixels wide here, and adjust the size to your preference.
