As designers, our inspiration can come from anywhere: the view from your kitchen window, a film, a piece of music or fine art, an old memory or something funny a child says.
The University of Northern Colorado is hosting an invitational exhibition intended to offer the students and community insight into what inspires the creative process for contemporary graphic designers. This even highlights the work of regional designers, firms, design educators and alumni of the School of Art & Design.
The exhibition is free and open to the public and we invite you to join us for the opening celebration
