Occuprint at Large!

Update #3 · Mar 19, 2012 · comment

This is the last week of Occuprint's campaign to raise funds to print tens of thousands of posters for the Occupy movement. We hit 100% of our funding target more than a week ago, but with more pledges we'll be able to do even more, so encourage your friends to chip in!

This weekend we distributed seven thousand posters at the annual Left Forum in New York City! Many out-of-town attendees are heading back home—to Riverside, Wilmington, Boston, Baltimore, Toronto and many, many more towns—bearing thousands of posters to spread the message of the May 1 General Strike far and wide.

Protesters took the posters to Liberty Square on the evening of the six-month anniversary of Occupy Wall Street:

Here are some more pictures snapped by Molly Crabapple of the posters in action:

    You get a copy of the full portfolio - 30 prints, along with a hand printed sheet listing all the authors and a little booklet describing the project. All the materials will be assembled in a nice box printed with the occuprint seal. For those of you with a budget to collect art, this really is an amazing deal. Most of the portfolios will be housed in libraries and museums - maybe one day after the revolution you'll even donate yours to a museum and the little white tag under the display will say "donated by so and so"... you'll be immortalized.
