Through July 2016
Whether in New York, Toronto or Tokyo, inappropriate behaviors are ubiquitous on mass transit and have annoyed commuters for more than a century. Employing creative and engaging visuals and a broad scope of humor, transit agencies around the world, including our own MTA, have tried to cajole and scold passengers into better behavior. Whether asking people not to smoke, to be safe on the edge of the platform or to throw away their trash, the graphic posters and videos featured in this exhibit highlight a universal language for courtesy that we can all understand.
