906 Poster Series

The area code for Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is 906, and each of these posters celebrate different cities in the U.P. Each one features a natural setting decorated with hidden references, such as the top of the Superior Dome represented in the shape of a Sun in the Marquette poster. They also feature animals native to the area, such as black bears, wolves, and whitetail deer. Each decoration above the city names also corresponds to an important or iconic building in that particular location. For example, the Marquette label also features an outline of the Superior Dome.

Spring 2022 Posters

“Persephone”: Featuring a fawn centered before purple mountains and plants, this piece depicts several motifs that are associated with Spring, and with the Greek goddess Persephone. Traditionally, Persephone is represented with lavender, daisies, and colors such as purple, pink, yellow, and indigo.

“Blue Salamander”: This poster features the outline of a blue-spotted salamander, and within it, an illustration of Presque Isle park in Marquette, MI. Every Spring, the road is closed through Presque Isle so that the salamanders are able to safely migrate.
