"Be Graphic: Make a Difference"

In April, Designbox welcomes local Peace College Graphic Design students for a juried exhibition showcasing the power of Social Justice.

In an era afflicted by poverty, disease, hunger, homelessness, market crashes, and unemployment, one may wonder how change may come about. Using this gallery as a medium to promote thoughtful action, local students demonstrate their commitment to using design as an agent for positive social change. They use graphic design to attack serious social justice issues with vision and passion. Images and posters depict issues from all around the globe and function as a "call to action." The show encourages community involvement, asking each of us to see ourselves as agents of positive change. '

curated by Ryan DeWitt [db], Denielle Emans and Carolyn Parker from Peace College, Raleigh, NC.
