The Rock Poster Society (TRPS) was founded in 1998 by a small contingent of collectors, dealers, artists and enthusiasts. We are a nonprofit, all-volunteer (nope, nobody gets paid) organization which seeks to perpetuate and promote the long-standing relationship between music and graphic art that we so fondly call “Rock Poster Art”.

    Thanks for the show, that was very interesting to hear these artists talk about the issues they have to deal with during COVID, but it also shows how artists try to show their creativity by coming up with new ideas to connect with the audiences and the art community.
    I am a textile artist and it was very inspiring to hear other type of artist being still so positive and having a good attitude, during those trying times.
    Thank you.
