Anyone know where to get some good (free) artwork

Late bump, so I have a feeling he ain't gonna see this, but what the hell...

First, did you ask the venue if they can crack off some dollars for promo? What's your relationship to the venue... it's unclear if you're 'volunteering' or you're the proprietor etc. Never solicit free work, least of all here, you got off pretty easy

Here's a little DIY tutorial that you might find useful:

Search "site:gutenberg.org" on Google Images. Those are works which have entered the public domain. Find a striking image (up to you if it has anything to do w/ the headliner / bands), crop it if the scene is too busy, and slap a bold headline + details. If you're going to print color, when in doubt less is more.

Actually just saw your message and I think that'll work great! Public domain sites were really all I was looking for, I just had trouble finding some. Also found a really great artist who made us some great flyers for the exposure. Thanks for the tip, I've already found some great stuff, I really like all of the old drawings and photos!

trying to find free art is not a good idea and asking a site filled with all of the top poster artists isn't going to get you anything at all for free, except for those inexperienced artists who come on offering their free services for crap work.

Man, I bet there are several strippers who must have thought the same thing when I asked if I could have a lap dance for $5.
