The section features posters created to promote the Rosamond Gifford Lecture Series.
Our relationship with Onondaga County Public Libraries goes back to our founding in 2001. The libraries are a rich resource for entrepreneurial activities, and we took full advantage. We researched public art initiatives, studied graphic design, developed databases, produced mailings, and printed a wide range of promotional material-all at local libraries. The libraries were our incubator.
Now, through partnership with Friends of the Central Library--the fund-raising group for the library system and organizers of the lecture series--we offer these literary posters. All sales benefit both the Poster Project and the Friends group.
