AUK Graphic Design Capstone Exhibition opens Monday, 14 May 6-8pm
Dear colleagues and friends,
It is with great hope that you can join us for the 2012 graphic design senior portfolio / capstone exhibition held at the Auditorium and the Multipurpose room of the American University of Kuwait. The opening reception is on Monday, 14 May from 6:00 – 8:00 pm. The exhibit is open to
the public from 15 – 17 May from 10 – 7 pm.
This graphic design exhibition showcases students' capstone projects, an outcome of a semester-long self initiated topic implemented through diverse applications. The course is largely self-directed and students are expected to select and investigate a topic using design as a means to present their findings. Social activism campaigns to re-brand identity is the core essence of this year’s exhibition.
We'd be honored if you came.
Prof. Maryam Hosseinnia + capstone students
