LOVE & RESISTANCE: STONEWALL AT 50
The New York Public Library commemorated the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots through a major exhibition, series of programs, book recommendations, and more.
The exhibition's branding and design and all accompanying programs aimed to strike a current, relevant tone, connecting the historical events to contemporary culture. Designs were inspired by the Library's collection and the exhibition’s thought-provoking curation.
