Columbus, Ohio, is the setting for this silkscreen poster, which invites residents to "Learn more live more" through free federal adult classes in many subjects. The Federal Art Project, part of the Works Progress Administration, sponsored it, and the program used silkscreen to produce inexpensive, eye-catching posters in quantity during the Depression. The poster lists 225 teachers, which shows how large the adult education effort was. A date stamp of October 14, 1937, on the back places it in the program's active years.
