what’s new and noteworthy
Student Showcase at Berkeley in Bloom Graphic Design students got a chance to help brighten the Woodland Park campus and showcase their digital design, typography, painting, and drawing skills by participating in the first annual “Berkeley in Bloom” event. A pop-up gallery was part of the one day event that featured art, music, and performance from a wide range of talented students and faculty.
Pictured above are Graphic Design students Kathy Lopez and Taylor Jones with Awards of Excellence they received from the Art Directors Council of New Jersey (ADCNJ) at the Designsters “Fest of the Best” earlier this month. In addition to receiving the awards and a complimentary membership in this professional organization, they had the opportunity to showcase their portfolios and receive valuable advice from established designers and potential employers.
