Fine Arts and Dance

A documentary on the work of Amos Paul Kennedy Jr., a visionary artist and educator who transforms the tradition of letterpress printing into a vehicle for social justice and collective learning. Kennedy’s prints—bold, layered, and unapologetically direct—blend typographic form with the urgency of protest, creating a body of work that speaks as much to the heart as to the eye. Each poster is a declaration, a reminder, a lesson—designed not only to be seen, but to be felt, remembered, and shared.

On Thursday, September 18 at 4:30 PM we will open the exhibition Amos Paul Kennedy Jr: Citizen Printer in the Bogigian Gallery at Wilson College. You are invited to experience the powerful work of Amos Paul Kennedy Jr., a visionary artist and educator who transforms the tradition of letterpress printing into a vehicle for social justice and collective learning. Kennedy’s prints—bold, layered, and unapologetically direct—blend typographic form with the urgency of protest, creating a body of work that speaks as much to the heart as to the eye.
