EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster announces an exhibition organized by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) Division of Women and Professional Projects, showcasing the selected skills of the unemployed. The image on the poster features a stylized spinning wheel and potter's wheel, symbolizing the traditional crafts and trades that were being revived through the WPA's initiatives. During the Great Depression, the WPA was established to provide jobs for the unemployed, and the Division of Women and Professional Projects was created to offer opportunities for women and professionals to learn new skills and earn a living wage. This exhibition was an opportunity for the public to view the fruits of their labor and appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship of the participants. The WPA's Division of Arts, Music, and Drama also played a role in the organization of this exhibition, which took place at Kaufmann's Department Store. The collaboration between these divisions allowed for a diverse range of artistic expressions to be showcased, from fine art to crafts, and provided a platform for the unemployed to demonstrate their talents and contribute to their communities. The poster's bold typography and dynamic design effectively convey the excitement and importance of the event. The use of a spinning wheel and potter's wheel as visual motifs emphasizes the connection between the past and the present, as well as the potential for renewal and growth through the WPA's initiatives. This poster is a testament to the power of art and creativity to uplift and inspire, even in the most challenging of times.
