Five poster artists who have helped define the Chapel Hill music scene had examples of their work on exhibit in Davis Library. The exhibit featured 40 reproductions of posters by Casey Burns, Matt Hart, Ron Liberti, Jason Lonon, and Chris Williams, dating from 1993 onward. The artists have played an important role in advertising local concerts. Many of their posters and fliers promoted events at venues such as Cat’s Cradle, Local 506, and Go! Room 4. The Southern Folklife Collection in the Wilson Special Collections Library holds the archives of all five artists, including original poster art.
