EXCELLENCE IN CRAFT LECTURE
Ellen Lupton
The Design It Yourself Revolution
Thursday, March 20, 7 PM at PNCA, 1241 NW Johnson
$5 (Free for members and students)
Ellen Lupton wants to bring design to the masses. In the much-discussed books D.I.Y.: Design It Yourself and D.I.Y. Kids, Lupton shares design concepts with writers, teachers, crafters and children. Now she'll deliver her message in person. Lupton's Excellence in Craft Lecture investigates how increased access to desktop publishing tools, paired with the growth of "do-it-yourself" culture, has changed the way we think about design. Drawing from her books, she will share ways to use design principles in everyday life.
