Isaza chose the landmark because of its connection to Miami and built the tower from books to make knowledge the literal foundation of the design. <\/p>\n<p>Created under the guidance of New World School of the Arts Professor Tatyana Ludean, the poster continues an annual collaboration that gives an MDC and NWSA student the opportunity to develop the visual identity for Miami Book Fair.<\/p>\n<p>A Miami native, Isaza grew up in South Miami and said spending more time downtown introduced her to another side of her hometown, particularly its artists and creative spaces. That experience influenced her decision to create a poster rooted specifically in Miami rather than an image focused solely on books. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope they walk away feeling inspired and curious, but also happy,\u201d Isaza said. \u201cI\u2019d love for people to carry some of that energy with them and feel inspired to pick up a book, learn something new, or become curious about something they may not have thought about before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Isaza is a Miami-based graphic designer focused on visual communication and branding. Her work is characterized by bold color, strong composition and attention to detail. <\/p>\n<p>The poster will serve as a signature visual for the 43rd Miami Book Fair, taking place Nov. 15-22, 2026, at Miami Dade College\u2019s Wolfson Campus in downtown Miami. The eight-day festival will bring nearly 500 authors to Miami, with programming ranging from author conversations and cultural programs to Children\u2019s Alley and the three-day Street Fair.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1IAPijXQU7jYJhedUuv4pMm7WBudpJUTg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Artist Media Kit for 2026 Poster<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1omD2ceVbNfPocxWsbXaQzeJH1KG92DFZ?usp=sharing\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Full MBF Media Kit:<\/a> Access high-res photos, b-roll and press releases.<\/p>\n<p>About Miami Book Fair<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 1984 by Miami Dade College and partners, Miami Book Fair engages the community through inclusive, accessible programs that promote reading and support writers year-round.
