Join YAAMNY for Saturday excursion to view "Art for All: British Posters for Transport," with curator Scott Wilcox and collector Henry Hacker (Yale College, 1965), followed by an informal lunch with the collector at a nearby restaurant. 

 

Art for All features more than one hundred outstanding posters from Hacker's collection executed for both the Underground and for the British railways, an aggressive promotional campaign that became one of the most successful, adventurous, and best sustained branding operations ever attempted.

 

We'll meet for the guided tour at 12:15 at the Yale British Art Center. For those coming from Manhattan, a YAAMNY group will meet at Grand Central Station to take the 10:07 train for New Haven; it will return on the 3:52 train.

 

Early registration is $10 till August 1. Afterwards, the cost will be $15.  Sign-up at: http://artforall.eventbrite.com

 

The price for the event does not include lunch.
