The Posada Teen Partnership Program was collaboration between the Art Institute of Chicago and the National Museum of Mexican Art, centering on the exhibition José Guadalupe Posada and the Mexican Broadside and related works from the ancient and modern holdings of Mexican art at the Art Institute of Chicago. Fifteen participants were recruited through the Yollocalli (meaning "House of the Heart") youth program, an established, committed group of teen artists who work across the curatorial, educational, and exhibition departments of the NMMA. The program took place from October 23 to December 14, 2006 and consisted of four visits to the Art Institute and an eight-week intaglio workshop at Yollocalli's Pilsen-based studio.
