End the spring season with a bang (hopefully not literally) with the latest edition of Posters & Cocktails. Join Nicholas Lowry of Swann Auctions Galleries, Don Spiro of the Green Fairy Society, and our very own Executive Director & Curator, Angelina Lippert, for a night of explosive entertainment straight out of the nuclear age in honor of the exhibition Fallout: Atoms for War & Peace. Split the atom between corporate propaganda and social activism in this Cold-War infused evening of posters accompanied by appropriately themed beverages. 

The night’s events will switch between specialty atomic-themed cocktails and the witty reparté of Nicho and Angelina as they highlight some of the best posters from both General Dynamics and numerous anti-nuclear movements around the world.
