SUMMARY:Members-Only Tour: Center for Book Arts
DESCRIPTION:Poster House Members are invited to a special private tour of the latest exhibition at Center for Book Arts\, Vico’s Spiral: Half Century of Artists’ Books\, led by librarian Gillian Lee. \nFifty years after Center for Book Arts was founded in 1974\, it is celebrating with a landmark exhibition focused on its own exhibition history. The overarching theme is the scope and diversity of the artists’ books\, concepts\, and practices displayed there over the past half century as seen through the lens of Vico’s Spiral and his nonlinear vision of history; this has been a very useful tool for considering some of the ideas and the broad range of methodologies in these innovative works. \nThis tour will take place at Center for Book Arts\, located at 28 W 27th St\, New York\, NY 10001. Space is limited! \n

SUMMARY:Apache: An Odyssey
DESCRIPTION:The nomadic Apache peoples’ experience over the past centuries has been characterized as unsettled and violent.

He holds an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago  in Visual Communication Design and a BA in Graphic Design from Fort Lewis College .

SUMMARY:Afro-Futurism and Nike
DESCRIPTION:The sports world has often been a critical marker of future trends in celebrity\, style\, marketing\, and youth culture. The museum’s current exhibition\, Just Frame It: How Nike Turned Sports Stars into Superheroes\, demonstrates how posters of notable athletes set the tone for the future of sports branding\, fostering the idea of the “Sports Star.” Poster House is thrilled to host a panel discussion about the ways in which Nike allows us to consider Afro-Futurism within the messaging and styling of a brand that has had special appeal for Black people.This panel will examine Afro-Futurism in the context of fashion history\, literature\, and visual language to investigate a future that never was. Join us in thinking about Nike branding from a new  perspective. \nDominique Norman (she/they) is a writer and educator whose work critically examines the complex intersections of fashion\, media\, race\, gender\, the body\, sexuality\, and culture.

SUMMARY:Bearing Witness: Black Printmakers “Calling Out” America!
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the acclaimed exhibition Lester Beall & A New American Identity\, Poster House is pleased to partner with the EFA Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop for an engaging conversation with esteemed scholar and historian Leslie King Hammond. This presentation reflects on the artistry of African American printmakers in the era of President Roosevelt’s Works Project Administration of 1935 to 1941\, work that had a powerful impact on subsequent generations of Black printmakers. Each artist–then and now–sought to create original and truthful prints in their chosen mediums and modalities to “signify on” (or indirectly criticize) the realities of their lives as citizens in the United States. \nLeslie King Hammond is an art historian\, artist\, curator\, educator\, community innovator\, and Professor Emerita\, former Dean of Graduate Studies\, and Project Director for the Ford Foundation-Philip Morris Fellowships for Artists of Color\, and Founding Director of the Center of Race and Culture at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA).

Lewis Museum of Maryland African American History and Culture; the Collections Committee of the  Walters Art Museum; the Advisory Board of Craft in America’s Handwork: Celebrating American Craft 2026; and the Advisory Board of AWARE-The Origin of Others. King Hammond has received lifetime achievement awards from the Studio Museum of Harlem; the Women’s Art Caucus of the College Art Association; the Brandywine Workshop and Archives; the Dubois Circle; the James A. Porter Colloquium at Howard University; and the Creative Alliance. The Detroit Institute of Arts has also given her the Alain Locke International Award and MICA has named a Graduate Student Fellowship in her honor. \nAccessibility Note: This program will be livestreamed on Poster House’s Youtube Channel. Masks and clear masks are available free of charge at the museum. Assistive-listening devices and stools are available.
