Meetinghouse Posters
About This Project
These posters were created to help Quaker Meetings connect with enquirers, visitors, and members of the wider community. The designs are intended for display both inside and outside meetinghouses, particularly in locations where they can be seen by passersby and people who may be curious about Quakers.
The posters use photography by John Hewitt (Tasmania Regional Meeting), whose images help convey the reflective, welcoming, and spiritually grounded nature of Quaker community life. The photographs are used with permission.
Available Poster Designs
The current collection includes:
-
"That of God"
