This collection is comprised of posters created by and for the Indianapolis Museum of Art and its predecessor organization, the John Herron Art Institute. Most of the posters were created to be ephemeral, to advertise museum events and exhibitions. Posters for events date from 1970 to 2013 and are housed in one flat file folder. Posters for exhibitions date from 1967 to 2008 and are housed in six flat file folders. Within each folder inventory, event and exhibition posters are listed in chronological order, but are physically arranged by size, from small to large.
One flat file folder houses posters that feature accessioned items from the IMA collections. Those posters are listed and physically arranged by size, from small to large.
