About the WPA President Franklin Delano Roosevelt established the Works Progress Administration in 1935 It was part of his New Deal program to put millions of unemployed Americans back to work. In July of 1935 The Federal Arts Project was established. FAP provided funds specifically for artists, musicians, actors, and writers.

FAP employed more than five thousand artists in various art projects throughout the United States. The activities of FAP also included art production, education, and research. The project employed artists in the fields of easel painting, sculpture, photography, mural painting, and graphic arts. FAP held exhibitions and organized community arts centers through which many Americans were first introduced to the arts.

Poster Production At first, posters were created by hand, individually painted and lettered. Later on, a silkscreen process was adapted for the mass production of posters by project artist Anthony Velonis. With over 900 posters, the Library of Congress collection is the largest collection of WPA posters in existence.

Posters were made to advertise educational programs and issues … Credits: Link to LOC Web page
