About this Event
On June 13, NYC PLAN is hosting a Library Art and Propaganda Fair!
What’s a Library Propaganda Fair, you ask?
It’s an all-ages artistic celebration of free, open access to information and this vital third space that welcomes everyone. Think, like, a fan convention, except what we’re fans of is the good old-fashioned public library. In these troubling times, libraries are more vital than ever.
We want to highlight the value of libraries, delight in physical media, and do it all with a guarantee of no generative AI. There will be artists showcasing their library-centric work; activities for kids; and a marketplace where you can find stickers, zines, paintings, postcards, and other ephemera dedicated to the radical pursuit of education and critical thought.
Join us from 11 am to 5 pm. There will be tablers all day who will have library inspired art and more. You can take part in our library photobooth and also get book recommendations.
Other programming includes:
11 am to 2 pm - Drop by to make collages from old books, decorate book marks, and more.
3 to 4:30 pm - Join us for a reading of Diana di Prima's Revolutionary Letters. Bring your copy of the book and join us.
The event is free and open to the public. Bring your friends and let's nerd out about public libraries together!
