And Now East

We are European optimists, and we believe the East is a magical place. AndNowEast Poster Festival

We view Eastern posters as condensed displays of an under the radar regional visual ethos that may contribute to a more energetic European spirit.

Thank you, Sofia.

The opening night of &NowEast 2026 was something we’ll carry with us. Thank you to everyone who was there — for showing up, for the conversations, and for making the first exhibition stop of this edition feel exactly as it should.

A special moment: our opening night also marked the start of the three days of the European Design Awards Festival — and we’re honoured to have been part of that.
&NowEast is shaped by people who believe in it.
