SUMMARY:Ask A Curator Day
DESCRIPTION:For the past ten years\, museum curators around the world have come together for this annual one-day event where members of the public can take to social media and ask a curator everything and anything. \nPoster House’s Chief Curator\, Angelina Lippert\, will be joining in the fun this year\, providing content on our Instagram Stories and Twitter feeds. \nAsk a Curator\, was the brainchild of Jim Richardson\, founder of MuseumNext\, a conference on the future of museums. The idea was that a curious public would be able to question the keepers of cultural heritage about the objects in their care and what it is they do with them.

SUMMARY:Poster Inspiration: A Virtual Night With Anna Sui
DESCRIPTION:Poster House is thrilled to present an evening with fashion design icon Anna Sui as she discusses how posters have inspired some of her most dynamic and beautiful collections. A native of Detroit\, Anna Sui’s work translated photography\, music\, pop culture\, and art history into effervescent designs for women who embraced eclectic chic and rockstar beauty. She was recently honored with a retrospective at the Museum of Arts and Design in NYC which will be traveling to NSU Ft. Lauderdale in February\, and her runway shows\, with their creative visuals\, unexpected interactive moments\, and brilliant soundtracks continue to excite fashion lovers around the world. Tonight\, she will be focusing on how posters from the 1960s and 70s have influenced and inspired her work. \nAnna Sui is one of New York’s most beloved and accomplished fashion designers\, known for creating contemporary original clothing inspired by spectacular amounts of research into vintage styles and cultural arcana. Sui joined New York’s intensely creative cultural underground in the 1970s\, forging important relationships in the worlds of fashion\, photography\, art\, music\, and design. \nA first-generation Chinese American\, Anna Sui came of age in a suburb of Detroit. Her career is a classic American success story. “You have to focus on your dreams\, even if they go beyond common sense. How could this young girl from the suburbs of Detroit become a success in New York? It was always that dream\,” she says. Sui was part of a generation of fashion designers who remade American style in the 1990s. She rejected 1980s power dressing\, with its corporate suits and big shoulder pads\, in favor of a more relaxed silhouette that reflected the values of youth culture. \nSince her premiere runway show in 1991\, Sui has produced eighty-four collections\, and she remains at the helm of her independent brand. Her label has grown to include accessories\, cosmetics and fragrance\, and she operates boutiques in the United States and Asia. A passionate advocate for New York’s Garment District\, she has located her business and produced her fashion lines here in New York City for the past thirty-eight years. \nPhoto by Joshua Jordan \nTickets: $5\nMembers & Students: Free!

SUMMARY:Walking Tour of West Village Neon
DESCRIPTION:Due to the success of our Walking Tour of Historic Chinatown Signage\, Poster House is partnering again with design historian Thomas Rinaldi as he guides you on this 90-minute walking tour of the West Village. \nGreenwich Village is blessed with an especially dense concentration of vintage neon signs. Signs like these advertised businesses large and small throughout the city beginning in the 1920s and 1930s. They fell out of favor in the 1960s due to rising costs\, restrictive zoning ordinances\, and the appearance of less costly forms of outdoor advertising. In recent years\, they have all but disappeared as old\, independent businesses across the city have succumbed to rent hikes and old age. This tour will take us past about a dozen signs dating to the 1930s\, 40s and 50s\, marking the locations of some of the neighborhood’s most stalwart restaurants\, bars\, and small businesses. We will see them at dusk\, as they start to come to light and when they look their best.  Some have been beautifully restored; all are in perpetual danger of disappearing.  We will discuss their materials\, design\, origins and future. \nThomas Rinaldi is the co-author of the book Hudson Valley Ruins: Forgotten Landmarks of an American Landscape\, published by the University Press of New England in 2006\, and the author of New York Neon\, published by W.W. Norton in 2012. His photographs have been published in The New York Times\, The Wall Street Journal\, The New York Post\, The New York Observer\, Westchester Magazine\, CNN Online\, and elsewhere\, and have been exhibited at the Municipal Art Society of New York and at the New York State Museum in Albany. \nNOTE: This tour does NOT begin at Poster House. You will be emailed the starting location one week before the event. Guests should be prepared to walk on uneven\, crowded streets for 90 minutes without seating. \nIn the event of rain\, the walking tour will take place on November 17.
