FEATURED826LA and the Echo Park Time Travel Mart are proud to premiere the second collection of original time travel themed posters designed by Los Angeles-based artist, Amy Martin.
Each poster promotes a civic message for good citizenship in the far past or distant future, transforming the predictable aesthetic of the WPA poster with ironic sloganeering such as "Fire Good...But Also Bad" and "Robots! Clean Your Drives Daily", coupled with clean, retro graphic design. They are on sale now for PRE-ORDER (shipping starts on September 14th) at http://www.826la.org/store-sundries/#time-travel-posters
Each poster is $19.99, or you can buy a set of 4 for $69.99. All proceeds go to 826LA, a nonprofit dedicated to helping students 6 to 18 with their creative and expository writing skills, and to helping teachers inspire their students to write. Last year's popular Time Travel Posters raised over $30,000 for 826LA's programs.
Purchase them in person, and meet the artist at The Echo Park Time Travel Mart at 1714 W. Sunset Blvd in Los Angeles, CA 90026. 826LA and Stories Books and Cafe will be hosting an open house with music, art, food, and drinkon September 12th at 7:30 p.m.
You can find preview images at the end of this email, and you can click on each for a larger version. If you'd like more information, please visit www.826la.org or contact christina@826la.org. For more information about Amy or to contact her, click here: http://design-book.blogspot.com/
