Students collaborate with a local organization, either a business or a non-profit, to create promotional "swag" designs for significant events. The project integrates art elements and design principles, emphasizing the design thinking process. Students brainstorm, prototype, and refine their ideas, applying creativity and critical thinking to produce compelling designs. When it comes time to unveil their designs to the client, they use artist statements to explain the rationale behind their choices.
