About us
Poster House is dedicated to presenting the impact, culture, and design of posters, both as historical documents and methods of contemporary visual communication. Through temporary exhibitions, a growing permanent collection, educational events, and publications, Poster House explores the enormous impact of posters on society and culture, and how they continue to influence human behavior in the 21st Century. Born out of the consumerist fervor of the Industrial Revolution, posters have a long history as a bridge between the worlds of art and design. They have been used to sell goods, advertise spectacles, promulgate propaganda, and incite revolutions; in all these capacities, posters alternately reflect and guide social concerns of the day. Poster House aims to draw out hidden histories of poster art, map their continued role in today’s media landscape, and encourage future design as the medium is reclaimed and reworked by successive generations in order to communicate quickly, effectively, and seductively to an audience constantly on the move.

We’re excited to announce this one! Join us at Poster House for our inaugural History in Two Dimensions: History of Graphic Design Student Symposium, a new program designed to encourage emerging scholars of graphic design history. After requesting papers from graduate and undergraduate students across the tri-state area, four people have been selected to present their research. Featuring a keynote speech by teacher and historian Ellen Lupton, this event will showcase different perspectives in design thought through principles of inclusivity and accessibility.
