The First Annual Student Graphic Design Show and Alumni Meet-and-Greet
|
|
|
The annual student graphic design show planning started with a move, a season change, and a twist. Radford University graphic design professors John O’Connor and Ken Smith wanted to find a way to bring together more students, alumni and community for the annual one night only student graphic design show. So, this semester they are shaking things up.
Working with the Radford University AIGA Student Group, they are moving this annual exhibition. This means in both time and place. This year’s show is from 5-7 p.m., Dec. 9, 2016, rather than during the spring semester. Sharkey’s On Top in Radford, Virginia, is the new venue.
“The student graphic design show has been a one-night show, held off campus for several years, and we hope that moving it into an even more public venue will both generate more student enthusiasm and make access easier for our visitors and alumni guests,” Smith said.
