What We Do emphasizes the significance of artistic achievement derived from research, practice and intelligent imagination. For more information, visit our website at www.d.umn.edu/tma

Why I do what I do
"Most design professionals are in a highly complex working environment, both technological and methodological. In many situations the communication challenges are multilayered. Design challenges must be explored from multiple viewpoints; client, user, designer, societal needs, purpose. Yet in the end design communication is often one on one."
- Janice Kmetz, Art & Design Faculty

This exhibit will be on display through March 22, 2015, but if you come to the opening you can meet the artists/faculty in person. Highly recommended.

Opening reception: Saturday, October 18, 2014 from 6 to 8pm - Tweed Museum of Art.

According to their announcement there will be a limited edition of screen printed posters created by John O'Neill on sale at the reception. This event is free and open to the public.
