School Street Posters is a map design and print studio based in Wallingford, Connecticut (formerly Chicago).

We create beautifully detailed street maps of college towns and cities using the highest quality printing equipment and substrates.

OUR MISSION

Our artwork is inspired by the idea of Community.

Groups of individuals connected by shared experience, no matter their age. People who have sat in the same eateries and pubs, and strolled the same avenues and boulevards. It is language, customs, superstitions and rivalries. While people may come and go from the physical location, they never leave the Community. It is always with them.

Our mission is to provide an expression of that Community. We hope you enjoy our work.

OUR STORY

I created the Normal, Illinois poster for my home office after graduating from Illinois State University in 2005. Seeing the names of the streets and avenues on my wall reminded me of the people and experiences from that period of my life.

Over time, friends saw the print and asked me to design street maps of their college towns.

The name—School Street—is not only a description of the products, but also the street where I met my wife in 2004. Her apartment building was demolished years ago, but the street remains.

In 2024, School Street Posters moved its operations from Chicago to Connecticut and became a subsidiary of That's Great News, one of the leading print manufacturers in the USA. The move allows us to expand our print capabilities and product line. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to see when new designs are released!
