Posters & Cocktails: Off the Leash!

Wednesday, Jul 28, 2021
7–9pm

Our Posters & Cocktails events continue to delight guests around the world! Tonight, grab your chew toys because we’re partnering with The Museum of the Dog for an evening of posters featuring everyone’s favorite furry four-legged friends!

Poster House’s Chief Curator will once again be hosting Nicholas Lowry of Swann Auction Galleries and Don Spiro of The Green Fairy Society over Zoom as they bark their way through these iconic dog posters!

After Don opens the show with our first cocktail, Nicholas will release the visual hounds. Afterwards, Don will continue to help us tastefully imbibe throughout the night while Nicho walks us through some of man’s best posters featuring man’s best friend.
