MSU NOTSTOCK? Combo four thoughts...

WOODSTOCK: The great music festival from 1969.

FLAT FILES: Studio artists often store work in flat files.

FLATSTOCK: A poster show series that is presented by the American Poster Institute (API). It is an ongoing series of exhibitions featuring the work of many of the most popular concert poster artists working today. The FLATSTOCK shows provide the general public with an ongoing series of opportunities to see fine poster art in person and to meet the artists who've created it -- they provide the API with a way to present the poster artists collectively while showcasing the breadth of individual styles they represent. (FLATSTOCK 16 poster by Jay Ryan: our 2007 guest)

WHY NOT MINOT? A ticklish rhyme with a reason…
