Remote Vibrant Verbal Description Tour: The Push Pin Legacy

Thursday, Sep 23, 2021
4–5:30pm

Every month, Poster House offers Vibrant Verbal Description Tours specifically for community members who are blind or have low vision. Explore one of the museum’s shows with a museum educator trained in the art of verbal description and learn more about the history of printed posters.

In order to reach a wide, art-loving audience around the world, we offer our description tours online through teleconference. These tours are led by our Chief Curator, allowing you intimate access to the items in our current shows.

This tour will focus on The Push Pin Legacy, a show chronicling this landmark design studio in NYC and how it defined a generation of illustration art.

Please email access@posterhouse.org or call 917.722.2439 x413 by September 21 to sign up for this event. You will be emailed poster images for reference as well as information about accessing the teleconference the morning of the virtual tour.

Tours start promptly and will last approximately 70 minutes with questions.
