About

The Federal Art Project (FAP) was the visual-arts arm of the Great Depression-era New Deal Work Projects Administration (WPA) Federal One program in the United States. It operated from August 29, 1935, until June 30, 1943. Reputed to have created more than 200,000 separate works, FAP artists created posters, murals and paintings. Some works still stand among the most-significant pieces of public art in the country. {Via Wikipedia}
