Welcome to Daylight Saving Time. While we’re all probably still feeling the effects, it is nice to leave work in daylight again. We are making our way out of a tough winter of record-breaking snow and cold.
Because of the severe weather, we had to reschedule the talk by alumnus, artist and graphic design icon Burton Kramer. I’m grateful to Burton for making himself available again on April 17 to share his amazing insights on the graphic design industry in Canada. I hope you can attend.
