Building and Collection edit

Val Crosswhite organized supporters and founded Poster House in 2015 to recognize the art and social impact of posters overlooked by existing institutions.[3] LTL Architects and Lumen Architecture transformed the former space of Apple specialist business TekServe for museum-quality use, especially in creating its new centralized lighting system.[4][5]
