Towards the end of summer I drove up to New Haven Connecticut to visit a friend from college and check out some current photography exhibits. New Haven, the cultural capital of Connecticut and home of Ivy League college Yale is quite the poppin off town. Catering mostly to the college demographic the town is filled with vintage stores, coffee shops, and museums galore. The coolest in my opinion is The Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library. Not only is the stuff in it cool, but the building itself is an architectural beauty.

So excited to announce that The Public Projects team at #thesteelyard just installed three tree guards and a bike rack for us today to us “finish off” our Reno in style! The designs are steel interpretations of our logo, which was designed by Design Agency, a local studio “specializing in visual identity design and branding for nonprofit clients working in arts, culture and education.”
Design and fabrication of the Projects by Jesi Nicoloro and Devyn Maher with help from the PPTeam.

My wife has socks just like this
Perfect assistant
I’m of the firm believe that every good girl and classy lady should always have at least one pair of fantastic argyle socks.

We are pleased to announce that we will be highlighted in an upcoming article, The Libraries’ Zine Collection: Inspiring Assignments and Art, written by Jon Jeffyres about our zine collection and recent exhibit, Protest Publishing and Art: From the Copy Machine to the Internet. Here’s a little taste:
“The University of Minnesota Libraries houses a unique collection of handmade publications that are sparking scholarly engagement and creative inspiration. Over the past year Arts & Architecture Librarian, Deborah Ultan, partnered with faculty to incorporate the Marshall Weber Culture Wars Zine Collection into multiple classes.The collaboration culminated with the exhibition “Protest Publishing and Art: From the Copy Machine to the Internet”, where highlights from the zine collection were shown with zines and poster art made by students, faculty, and community members.”
The article will be published in the upcoming issue of University of Minnesota’s magazine, “Continuum.”
