EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster announces the WPA Federal Music Project of New York City's free orchestra and band concerts at the Educational Alliance located on 197 East Broadway. Dated between 1936 and 1941, during the height of the Great Depression, the poster showcases an array of musical instruments, suggesting the rich diversity of the performances that were to be offered. The WPA Federal Music Project, an initiative of the Works Progress Administration, was established to provide employment opportunities for musicians and to bring the beauty and joy of music to the public, many of whom were struggling during these difficult times. The poster's bold design, with its dynamic use of color and typography, reflects the progressive spirit of the project and the administration that supported it. The Educational Alliance, a community center that has been serving New York City's Lower East Side since 1865, provided a fitting venue for these free concerts, which offered a much-needed respite from the challenges of daily life. The poster's call to action, "Presented by the WPA Federal Music Project of New York City," invites the viewer to attend and experience the transformative power of music firsthand.
