Uncommon Schools/Rochester Prep High School Design Workshop 2016

I was invited by Digital Arts Teacher Kristin Nastav to lead a series of four short workshops
to introduce ninth grade students to Graphic Design fundamentals.

The workshops were called Let's Design Posters! and were intended to assist students in the design of posters celebrating individuals whom they admire.

Topics covered included typography, messaging, use of color, spatial relationships and composition, and information about my courses at RIT and professional opportunities in Graphic Design.

RIT is a supporter of Rochester Prep High School and many faculty in CIAS conduct workshops for students in the Digital Arts Program there.
