Sketches Of Storefronts That Celebrate Local Business

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Nov 25, 2022

[REBROADCAST FROM OCTOBER 20, 2022] When New York City effectively shut down in March 2020, artist Joel Holland began sketching the storefronts in his neighborhood as a homage to beloved small businesses. As the lockdown continued, he moved beyond his neighborhood and began posting on Instagram. His new book, NYC Storefronts: Illustrations of the Big Apple's Best-Loved Spots, contains 225 sketches of storefronts, from bodegas to bars. He joins along with David Dodge, the book's writer, and we take your calls for your most beloved small businesses.
