SUMMARY:First Friday: Community Garden Block Printing with Jessica Lou
DESCRIPTION:In this interactive workshop\, participants will learn the basics of block printing and carve their own printing blocks. The session begins with an introduction to block printing\, covering its history\, home printing techniques\, creative inspiration\, and safe carving practices. \nUsing nature-themed prompts inspired by the museum’s exhibition Blazing a Trail: Dorothy Waugh’s National Parks Posters\, participants will carve their blocks and then share and print each other’s designs\, creating unique collaborative works. This approach is intended to build confidence and community through shared creativity. \nSince carving tools are used in this workshop\, it is not suitable for participants under the age of 12.  \nTeaching Artist: Jessica Lou (@lookygoodss) is an independent artist who celebrates her Asian-American heritage by reimagining Chinese culture in fresh and playful ways across multiple art forms. Her work seeks to capture the joy and nostalgia that shine through the complexities of being a third culture individual. Jessica creates and sells art prints\, posters\, stickers\, magnets\, and more through her website and at in-person pop-ups. Her primary mediums include digital illustration\, graphic design\, risograph printing\, and block printing.

SUMMARY:Spanish-language Tour of Blazing A Trail: Dorothy Waugh’s National Parks Posters
DESCRIPTION:Join Poster House for a Spanish-language tour of Blazing A Trail: Dorothy Waugh’s National Parks Posters. \nDorothy Waugh\, whose posters encouraging Americans to travel to the National Parks during the New Deal era have often been overlooked\, effectively transformed the image of these officially protected landscapes. Between 1934 and 1936\, she designed 17 bold posters that gave the National Park Service its own style\, one that clearly distinguished it from those of the railroad companies that dominated domestic travel advertising at the time. Her groundbreaking work marked a turning point in American graphic design\, and on this tour you’ll get a close look at the entire series along with archival materials that reveal the story behind their creation. \n  \nPoster House le invita a participar en una visita guiada de «Trazando un camino: Dorothy Waugh y sus afiches de los parques nacionales».  \nDorothy Waugh\, cuyos afiches diseñados para animar a la población estadounidense a conocer los parques nacionales y que han sido frecuentemente soslayados\, logró transformar decisivamente la imagen de estos paisajes protegidos por el Estado durante la era del «New Deal». Entre 1934 y 1936 diseñaría 17 llamativos afiches para dar un estilo propio al Servicio de Parques Nacionales\, distinguiéndolo así claramente de la publicidad de viajes por los EE. UU.\, dominada hasta entonces por las compañías ferroviarias de la época. Su innovador trabajo marcaría un punto de inflexión en el diseño gráfico nacional; en esta visita guiada podrá admirar de cerca toda la serie\, junto con materiales de archivo que revelan la historia detrás de su creación. \n  \nAccessibility Note: Masks and clear masks are available free of charge at the museum. Assistive listening devices and stools are available. ASL (American Sign Language) interpretation or a CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation) is also available upon request. Please contact access@posterhouse.org or (914) 295-2387 to request interpretation services and to address any other accessibility needs.

SUMMARY:First Friday: Pasta Poster Workshop with Lorenzo Fanton & Giulia Zoavo (Salotto.nyc)
DESCRIPTION:This one-hour workshop invites students to transform one of Italy’s most beloved cultural icons—pasta—into a source of visual inspiration. Each participant will choose a shape of pasta to work with and let its form\, texture\, and name spark ideas for a unique poster design. \nThrough hands-on experimentation with collage—using inks\, magazine cut-outs\, and colored paper—students will translate culinary shapes into bold graphic compositions. From the spirals of fusilli to the butterflies of farfalle\, here pasta becomes more than food: it becomes a visual language. \nBy the end of the session\, participants will have created an original poster that connects everyday Italian culture to personal creativity. The exercise celebrates pasta as a design catalyst—simple\, familiar\, and endlessly versatile. \nLorenzo Fanton (@lorenzofanton) is an Italian graphic designer\, art director\, and type designer based in New York City. With a practice spanning brand identity\, editorial\, and digital design\, he is recognized for translating complex ideas into clear\, type-driven systems and elegant visual narratives. His international experience—shaped at such studios as Pentagram\, Collins\, Ogilvy & Mather\, The Partners\, Siegel+Gale\, The Glue Society\, and Fabrica—has led to collaborations with Ferrari\, Taschen\, Netflix\, AGBO\, NBC\, Warner Records\, Riot Games\, and Polyvinyl\, among others. Awarded by the Type Directors Club\, SPD\, and ADC\, Lorenzo continues to balance research and intuition in building concept-driven work. \nGiulia Zoavo (@giuliazoavo) is an Italian-born multidisciplinary designer and visual artist based in New York City who tells complex stories with simple shapes—and sometimes with words too.
