Member Duties : The Syracuse Poster Project brings together poets and artists to create an annual series of civic art posters for display in Syracuse. Each poster features an illustration based on a short poem about the downtown, the city at large, or the nearby countryside. The Project generates community and a sense of place through civic poster art, develops ways for poster art to sustain itself, and gives local poets and artists opportunities to develop their craft. The Public Arts and Poetry VISTA will build organizational capacity and help with the succession of the Project's leadership. The VISTA will recruit interns from area colleges and youth workers through job readiness programs. The VISTA will also document work processes, compile training manuals, support grant-writing efforts, and refine donor campaigns. Additionally, the VISTA will cultivate partnerships and community sponsors, fundraise for special initiatives, and help with marketing development.
