Join us on Thursday, October 27th from 5:00pm - 7:00pm to celebrate the exhibition Activate: Shepard Fairey and the Art of Protest .
Activate: Shepard Fairey and the Art of Protest focuses primarily on Fairey’s engagement with social and political issues through his popular screen-printed posters. Drawn from the collection of Grand Valley alumni Rory ’14 and Emily ’14, ’20 Miller, it includes posters from the last ten years that Fairey created in reaction to current events and to support specific marches, events, and related organizations.
RSVP recommended. All guests are required to follow COVID-19 safety guidelines (wear a mask, stay home if you're feeling sick, stay 6 feet apart when possible indoors).
