Celebrate Junteenth by joining co-hosts Posters for the People, Tammi Lawson, Curator of the Art & Artifacts Division at The Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture - New York Public Library, and Monna Morton Design for a panel discussion honoring and exploring Black artists and designers in Harlem who, through their vision and innovation gained inclusion in the WPA, and went on to serve as a model for the rest of the nation. This celebration will look through the lens of the WPA and Harlem Renaissance era, and bring in the voices of contemporary designers to connect the legacy to today. During this moment in history, of a national recovery from the pandemic and the ongoing experience of Black creative workers, we will discuss how to practice craft in impactful ways.
