Fifth Anniversary Block Party Recap

Poster House’s Fifth Anniversary Block Party was a huge success! On Saturday, July 13, we hosted this annual event right outside the museum’s doors for the first time ever.

Although the day started out wet (it wouldn’t be a Poster House party without a little rain), the sun came out by noon and the program went off without a hitch. More than ten thousand people attended our annual Block Party to celebrate five years of Poster House.

Guests enjoyed live music and dance performances, activations from community partners, games, prizes, giveaways, and, of course, our acclaimed exhibitions! In fact, the museum itself welcomed more than two thousand visitors, the highest single-day attendance in Poster House history.

Poster House even received a proclamation from the City of New York to commemorate the occasion!

Thank you to all of our performers and partners who participated in making the day a huge success: The Arm, Manhattan Graphics Center, Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop, Center for Book Arts, Bideawee, The Simons Foundation, Welcome to Chinatown, Kadampa Meditation Center, Elite Brooklyn Jumpers, Puppetsburg, The Blue Angels Drumline & Blue Royalty Dance, Shake Rattle & Roll Dueling Pianos, Mike Freeman ZonaVibe, Josh Lawrence Organ Quartet, It’s Showtime NYC, Soul Summit, DevDoee, Liquid Death, and The High Line.

A special thanks to our sponsor, Great Performances.

This tremendous celebration would not have been possible without the hard work of Poster House’s incredible staff. The whole team worked tirelessly to bring this celebration together, and it would not have happened without everyone’s contribution. Thanks for all of your efforts!
