Thank you to all the fine folks who joined us for Festival of Rock Posters at Hall of Flowers (San Francisco County Fair Building) this past Saturday, October 22, 2016 in Golden Gate Park. It was a grand time celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the psychedelic rock poster, and experiencing how this art form has remained relevant, especially in the digital age.
This year we saw record attendance, with our Artist Relief Trust posters by the legendary Stanley Mouse selling out within an hour of opening. This silkscreen poster is extra special because all proceeds from the sale go directly to benefit an artist in need. Thank you for your support. We look forward to seeing pictures of your copy, signed by Mouse on social media.
We are already at work preparing for next year, hopefully with a confirmed date soon. Until then, please enjoy these pictures. (click to enlarge)

It is just us, or have the posters for Pearl Jam’s spring 2016 tour been even better than usual? Things got off to a great start on April 8 and 9 in Florida with watery images by Brad Klausen and Chuck Sperry. On April 18, San Francisco artist Zio Ziegler unveiled his first poster for the band for its show at the Hampton Coliseum. A week-and-a-half later, fans attending the show in Philly on the 29th got a chance to pick up a taxidermy-themed print by Emek. And then on May 1 and 2, those lucky enough to score tickets for Pearl Jam’s return to Madison Square Garden were treated to a gorgeous owl by BioWorkz (aka, Ben Kwok) on the first night and a pair of dancing dragons by David Welker the next. A few more dates in Canada remain, including one tonight, then it’s on to Bonnaroo in June and a couple of ball parks in August, each of which should spur a mini-series of its own. Can’t wait!
Thank you to all the people who joined us on October 25, 2014 at the Hall of Flowers (San Francisco County Fair Building) in Golden Gate Park for our annual celebration The Festival of Rock Posters with some of the most talented artists around the country, and across the pond!
This year was our best yet, with a record number of visitors thanks to your participation! Thank you for coming out and supporting the arts.
We hope you enjoy these pictures taken at the event by Loretta Baraona.

Our annual Fall Classic TRPS Festival of Rock Posters is confirmed for Saturday October 25th, 2014 at the San Francisco County Fair Building (aka Hall of Flowers) in beautiful Golden Gate Park.
We’re thrilled to announce that Bonnie MacLean Graham will be joining us for her first San Francisco appearance at a TRPS event. The Bill Graham Foundation will be there as well, so this year’s show will be an informal celebration and remembrance of Bill Graham.
We’re also stoked about first-time appearances of AJ Masthay and Adam Pobiak, as well as the return of so many of our favorites.
