During its concert Friday at American University’s Bender Arena, the most entertaining part of the show surprisingly was not the tunes but the […]

The state-of-the-art kiosks are fitted with a glass enclosure to protect the posters from the wrath of nature’s elements and electrical lights to illuminate posters.
