Ben Linder Café Poster

The image below is a snapshot of a tri-fold poster I created for use in promoting a proposal to establish the Ben Linder Café at Bridgewater State University.

The purpose of this post is to share the slide set that comprises the individual sheets that are included on the poster. BSU community members: please contact me to arrange for use of the poster at an event. I can lend it to BSU students who have been closely involved in the project, send the poster to an event with one of those students, or bring it myself if my schedule permits.

The center panel describes the main features of the café and its relation to the legacy of Ben Linder. The left panel 
describes the problematic coffee options currently available at BSU.
The right panel describes the MANY ways in which BSU is a coffee
leader, except on the campus itself.

(Please note: using "Ben Linder" as a search term on this blog will point to many of the ways in which his legacy has inspired Bridgewater State students. The Coffee Belwethers [sic] post is a good introduction to our vision of sustainable coffee for the campus.)

A couple of days after completing this poster, I found something that I will find a way to add -- a pedicafé! That is, a pedicab outfitted as a portable café. The owner and builder was kind enough to let me pose on it as if driving it.
I was actually a little emotional at the chance to pretend-drive
this café trike at the Saturday farmers market at Fairhaven High School.
Silly Bean Coffee offers delicious iced and nitro coffee from Armeno.
BSU students have suggested something like this in the past, but seeing one in action made me realize that this kind of café could be an essential part of a coffee strategy at BSU.
