Two Common Ground events this March!

Lois Harada | Practicing Artist

6 p.m., Tuesday, March 19, 2024
Via Zoom
Harada is a practicing artist, commercial letterpress printer, and art and design educator based in Providence, RI.
Lois utilizes text and the medium of the poster to tell her family’s story of incarceration — her paternal grandmother was interned in Poston, Arizona from 1942 -1945. She takes inspiration from propaganda printed and distributed by the United States government and prints with type and equipment like that which would have created the original works.
