If Every Poster was a Stone : Closing Reception 

Date: (UPDATED) September 12, 2025 

Time: 7pm-9pm 

EastSide Arts Alliance + Cultural Center Gallery

2285 International Blvd, Oakland CA

If Every Poster Was a Stone is an exhibit of Palestine posters that examine the use, responsibility, and inherent political nature of the poster. It will include pieces which challenge the false and divisive narratives of the US/western empire, posters that promote action, connection, inter-solidarity, learning over avoidance and despair, and posters which ground us in the decades of steadfast struggle of the Palestinians. There will be posters gathered from in-person protests and actions in America, online printed posters generated internationally since Oct 7th 2023, and historical posters from archives such as the Palestine Poster Project. Our title and theme is in reference to the first Intifada, and a tie-in to art and printmaking. Just as every Palestinian could pick up a stone to throw, so can every artist, designer, principled human raise their voice for Palestine and all colonized peoples.
