If until now no bold-faced art world names have jumped into the #OccupyWallStreet ring, Shepard Fairey has officially become the first major artist to throw his artistic support behind the protests by designing the invitation to tomorrow’s “[The Occupation Party](http://www.theoccupationparty.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com)” in Times Square. WNYC’s [Brigid Bergin](http://www.wnyc.org/blogs/wnyc-news-blog/2011/oct/14/hope-artist-shepard-fairey-designs-wall-street-protest-invite/?ref=hyperallergic.com) has the full story.
