Posters & Cocktails Takes To The Skies

Tuesday, Mar 9, 2021
7–9pm

Our Posters & Cocktails parties have amassed a huge following, so we are keeping the momentum going by bringing this edition to new heights! That’s right: it’s a night of aviation posters and mile-high drinks!

Our Chief Curator will once again be hosting Nicholas Lowry of Swann Auction Galleries and Don Spiro of The Green Fairy Society over Zoom as they soar through all things aviation-related.

After Don gets us off the ground with our first cocktail, Nicholas will soar through posters for air shows, air meets, and even a few races! As our glasses empty, Don will pilot us through a few more beverages to keep us well-lubricated for the graphic design journeys ahead in the second-half of Nicho’s talk.
